Do parents have any custody or visitation rights in New York?

Grandparents in New York can pursue custody or visitation rights in specific situations. While parental rights are generally given priority, the court may consider granting these rights to grandparents if the parents are absent, unfit, or if the grandparents have formed a strong, meaningful relationship with the child. The court always focuses on what arrangement will best serve the child’s interests and well-being.

Is it possible to modify a child support order in New York?

Yes, child support orders in New York can be modified if there is a significant change in the financial circumstances of one or both parents. Examples include a job loss, a substantial increase in income, or other financial challenges. The court reviews each situation individually to determine whether a modification is appropriate.

Can I relocate to another state from New York with my child after a custody order?

You may relocate out of state if the other parent agrees or if the court approves the move. If challenged, the court will examine factors such as the child's relationship with each parent, the reasons for relocating, and how the move may affect the child's life. A New York custody lawyer can assist in preparing the necessary legal arguments.
