Parental Rights in Family Court in New York

New York Family Court Lawyer

There are various Family Court issues that directly relate to parental rights, including custody, visitation, child support, paternity and child neglect and abuse. You may wish to adopt a child or may wish to initiate proceedings involving the termination of parental rights, and both of these matters are also addressed in New York Family Court. The termination of parental rights involves permanently ending the legal rights of a child’s natural parent or parents, thus freeing the child for adoption. This is often only done in extreme circumstances where a child has been abandoned or it has been proven that the parents are entirely unfit to care for the child or present a serious danger to the child’s health and wellbeing.
