The Law Offices of Scott David Stewart

Arizona Grandparents' Rights Lawyer

In many custody cases, a primary custodial parent is not capable of providing his or her child with a safe and secure home. It is possible in these situations for a grandparent to step in and seek temporary custody or guardianship in order to protect not only their access to the child, but to protect the child. When seeking guidance regarding your custody or visitation rights regarding a grandchild, contact an experienced grandparents' rights lawyer at the Law Offices of Scott David Stewart. Under the guidance of attorney Scott David Stewart, we have handled many grandparents' rights cases.

There are many situations in which a grandparent's visitation or custody rights may be increased, including:

  • Working with a parent's current custody or visitation schedule if a military deployment of the parent is required
  • Seeking primary custody when neither parent is available to effectively assume parental responsibilities
  • In situations where drug or alcohol issues, neglect or abuse, or jailing of primary custodial parent complicate the custody, a grandparent may seek temporary guardianship to ensure a proper alternative to foster care

Unfortunately, many parents take drastic steps in preventing grandparents from contacting or seeing their grandchildren, even if the hostile parent is the grandparent's own child. By exploring the relationship between the grandparent and grandchild, it is possible for our office to vigorously strive to prove that recognizing and protecting the relationship is in the best interests of the grandchild.

Our office also handles the rights of stepparents in family law and child custody cases.

Grandparents have a right to ensure the security of their grandchildren - contact Phoenix grandparents' rights lawyer Scott David Stewart today and discuss your custody options from a non-parental standpoint.
