Plano Visitation Attorney
A Plano visitation lawyer is essential in meeting the needs of your children
In many divorces, issues of custody and visitation are negotiated through a mediation process in which both parents, each accompanied by a visitation lawyer, work together to determine how to ensure the children continue to spend time with both parents. For many Plano parents, achieving visitation rights—with the help of a Bowes & Hennessee, P.L.L.C. attorney skilled in visitation arrangements—ensures the greatest degree of flexibility in developing arrangements that truly serve the best interests of the children.
Achieving equitable visitation rights
Whenever possible, a visitation rights lawyer at our firm guides clients in Plano toward achieving a negotiated settlement. This option allows parents to retain greater control over the settlement, rather than leaving it in the hands of the courts. In addition to dealing with potentially contentious attitudes of both parents, your visitation rights lawyer must often deal with many complex issues, such as the following:
- Physical location of both parents
- Job and travel requirements that may require extra scheduling flexibility
- Dealing with unexpected situations, such as illness of parents or children
Flexibility in these and other issues can be negotiated between parents.
Handling modifications and disputes
Even after visitation rights are set forth in the divorce settlement, you may need the help of a visitation rights attorney when situations change—or when visitation disputes arise. You may face the need for modifications to the original agreement when either parent needs to move to another state or due to other anticipated circumstances. And disputes often arise when either parent attempts to make arbitrary changes to the visitation schedule. It is not always necessary to take these issues to court—our attorneys can often help clients reach agreement.
