Grandparent’s Rights

In the state of Kentucky, grandparents may sue for visitation rights if the visitation is shown to be in the child’s best interest. Grandparents may also petition for visitation if the child’s parents have lost their parental rights. Contact us for more information.

Prenuptial Agreements

Typically, a prenuptial agreement is entered into by two adults who plan to marry and wish to separate their assets, income, or other areas of their lives before they are legally bound to each other. These agreements may include terms of forfeiture of assets or loss of guardianship if a divorce occurs due to infidelity or other conditions.
