Major Factors
There are a number of factors that can affect your ability to see your child. In general, courts may deny visitation rights to parents who:
- Have a history of alcohol or drug abuse and have not received treatment for such
- Have a history of child abuse or sexual harassment
- Have a history of violence in general or domestic violence in particular
- Do not make an effort to pay mandatory child support payments
If you have been accused of any of these actions, it may be beneficial to you to engage the assistance of an experienced attorney to help defend you name.
