Visitation Rights After a Divorce
Colorado courts always decide child custody and visitation matters in favor of the "best interests of the child". In most cases this means giving priority to the parents' wishes regarding visitation rights to other family members. If a parent who has been granted legal custody objects to giving grandparents visitation time with a grandchild, it is usually very difficult for the courts to grant that visitation rights. However if there is an on-going custody dispute between parents who have legal custody, the grandparents may be able to interject themselves into the case.
