Because of a range of societal factors, grandparents are increasingly asking the Probate and Family Court to examine and intrude upon constitutionally-protected parent-child relationships. Practitioners need to be familiar with the relevant law, including new case law and statutes, so that they can advise and represent grandparents.
This course focuses on the basics of grandparent visitation law, what a grandparent can expect in guardianships of minors, and alternatives to the litigation process.
Join the experts as we look at the options and what to expect when representing grandparents.
