Grandparental Rights Law:

Increasing divorce rates have been playing a significant role in changes in the relationship between grandparents and their grandchildren. Unfortunately, most grandparents are not awarded grandparental rights during a child custody case. This is because of bad feelings, the death of one parent or the parents with custody that purposefully breaks the ties of the children with their grandparents.

Consequences of Grandparental Rights:

Grandparental rights is a relatively new concept, but it is getting more and more recognized, as the role of grandparents in a child's life is become more important. Most child custody cases overlook or ignore grandparental rights and courts determine what's best for the grandchild.
