Visitation Rights Modification Steps

Summary

If your ex is not allowing you to see your son as per the court-ordered visitation, document each incident and communicate through written means. If the location for visitation is financially burdensome, inform your ex and suggest affordable alternatives. If uncooperative, consider filing a motion to modify visitation terms due to financial hardship. Present evidence of financial hardship and communication attempts at your status hearing. Suggest alternative locations that allow for meaningful interaction with your child.

- Communication: Try to communicate with your ex through written means (text, email) to have a record.
- Mediation: Consider mediation to resolve disputes.
- Court: If the issue persists, you may need to return to court to enforce the visitation order.
