Milford Michigan Visitation and Overnights Lawyer
If you are going through a divorce or separation from a partner, you may be wondering how often you will be able to see your children.
Michigan laws recognize that when parents separate or divorce, it is in the best interests of the children to retain strong relationships with both parents. Parenting time should be of a frequency, duration and type reasonably calculated to promote this strong relationship. A determination of a fair and equitable overnight plan is crucial in preserving the rights of parents to stay involved in their children's lives. Let us fight for your children’s right to have both parents in their lives. Whether you believe your children will be in the best environment if they see each parent equally or if they should live primarily in one household, we can develop the right plan for you.
What if My Children Aren't Safe?
There are times, however, when an overnight plan is not in the children's best interests. Your ex-spouse or partner may struggle with drug addiction or alcohol abuse. In these cases, there are options. For example, the parent picking up the children for an overnight or visit can be ordered to pass a Breathalyzer or drug test before putting the children in the car and when the children are returned. If he or she fails, then parenting time is canceled. Similar safeguards can be put into place where other dangers are present and need to be addressed.
