THE ADVANTAGE TO RESOLVING A DISPUTE
If you and your spouse or significant other have decided to divorce or separate amicably, you may agree on everything (custody, child support, medical support, visitation, possession, access to children, who gets what property and who pays debt in the case of divorce). An uncontested resolution is the quickest and most inexpensive way to resolve your family law matter.

GRANDPARENT'S RIGHTS
Veronica Dorsey understands most grandparents and parents agree on the times when children visit with their grandparents, but disagreements occur. Catastrophic events like death or incarceration also play a part in strained relationships between parents and grandparents. It is not uncommon for a parent to remove a child from a grandparent who has had primary possession of the child for an extensive period. If you are such a grandparent who is fighting to keep primary possession of your grandchild or to maintain consistent contact with your grandchild, a consultation with an attorney may help you decide whether to file a lawsuit or “intervene” into a pending lawsuit. A knowledgeable attorney can tell you how extensive past contact with the child and/or proof a parent or caretaker is hurting your grandchild may impact your decision.
