A court may award visitation rights if visitation would be in the child's best interest. A court may award a grandparent the same visitation rights as a parent without custody if the grandparent's child is deceased and the grandparent has provided child support to the grandchild.
In addition to or in lieu of seeking custody, a grandparent in Virginia can petition the court for visitation with their grandchild. The rules for grandparent visitation depend on whether it is a case where both parents object to grandparent visitation, or only one parent objects to visitation.randparents may seek custody or visitation of their grandchildren for any number of reasons. Perhaps one or both parents have become incapacitated, incarcerated, or otherwise unfit to have custody. Or perhaps a grandparent feels that a parent is preventing them from maintaining a health relationship with a grandchild.
