What Does the Court Consider When Determining Visitation Rights
In family law proceedings, there are a number of factors that the court considers in order to determine a relative’s visitation rights. These include:
The length and quality of the prior relationship between the child and the relative
Whether the child is in need of guidance, enlightenment or tutelage which can best be provided by the relative
The preference of the child if they are determined to be of sufficient maturity to express a preference
The mental and physical health of the child and the relative
