Washington law favors the right of parents to maintain a close and active relationship with their children after a divorce. While visitation may be restricted if a parent poses a risk of danger to a child's physical or mental well-being, the vast majority of divorce cases result in parenting plans that allow both parents to maintain a strong and active relationship with their children.
If you are involved in a divorce or you are seeking to modify the visitation provisions of an existing parenting plan, protect your rights by retaining an experienced family law attorney. For experienced representation in Eastern Washington, I encourage you to contact my law office in Spokane.
