Protecting Your Visitation Rights
At J. Elaine Mosher & Associates, our focus will always be on protecting your legal rights and identifying what is in the best interest of your child. While the parent without custody is entitled to reasonable visitation privileges, it is important to remember that every situation is different and the needs of your child change as interests and relationships grow and change outside the family.
Ideally, parents will set aside their differences for the benefit of the child and determine what will benefit the child rather than whether the time belongs to one parent or the other. Our goal is to provide clear rules for each parent in providing for the child's physical, moral, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual development.

Enforcing Visitation
Contact Us For Time With Your Child
Parents who are denied their visitation time or who feel that their child may be endangered through visitation with the other parent have legal recourse. Our office assists clients in the filing of emergency protective orders and in the modification and enforcement of court-ordered decrees and prior orders.
Depending on the circumstances, courts attempt to maintain some contact between the child and the non-custodial parent, including options like supervised visitation time. We are able to assist grandparents, great grand parents, and siblings in obtaining court-mandated access after a divorce. There is a precedent for the approval of these types of arrangements, as always based upon the best interests of the child.

The judge has authority to set the possession schedules for the parents.
Theoretically, the possession schedule is to be set so as to best serve the child's interests. However, as a practical matter, the "standard possession schedule" is usually the starting point for discussions about visitation. Generally, lawyers and judges use the standard schedule as their foundation for negotiations and work by expanding or contracting that outline rather than starting from scratch
