Many parents and children who are separating or divorcing in difficult circumstances need help from a neutral third party in arranging for visitation. Although emotions may be running high between you and the other parent, it is your children's best interests that you should consider first when thinking about visitation. In most situations, children want to continue relationships with both parents. If your former partner still wants to maintain a relationship with the child, judges are unlikely to terminate the rights of the parent to visit. In particularly volatile situations where you may have safety concerns for you or your child, you may want to consider supervised visitation or monitored exchanges.
ARE YOU IN NEED OF A PARENT/CHILD VISITATION SUPERVISOR?
If so, perhaps we can help you and your client.
What it is that we do:
1. Serve as an unbiased supervisor for visitations that occur between non-custodial parents and their child(ren).
2. Travel to the visitation site, which will be at a time and location that is agreed upon by all parties. (we understand that Courthouses, Police Stations, and Visitation Centers are not always the ideal site for supervised visitations to take place, and many non-custodial parents would rather visit with their child in a less “sterile” environment).
3. Ensure that the non-custodial parent and child(ren) are never left alone and unsupervised.
4. Travel along with the child(ren) to any location the non-custodial parent also travels.
5. Monitor and record everything of importance that occurs during the visit.
6. Report on a regular basis afterward to all parties of interest as to what occurred during the visit. (If necessary, we will even appear in Court, upon being subpoenaed, and present testimony as to the events that occurred during the visit).
7. Terminate the visit when necessary, by either calling the other parent/guardian or 911, should the non-custodial parent not abide by the established verbal and written guidelines. 4 automatic ways for a visit to be terminated are:
* the non-custodial parent making derogatory or disparaging comments about the other parent/guardian to the child(ren),
* the non-custodial parent talking about the court case with the child(ren),
* the non-custodial parent being verbally abusive toward the child(ren) or physically disciplining the child(ren), and this includes spanking, shaking, etc,
* the child(ren) or non-custodial parent exhibiting enormous discomfort or distress during the visit that progressively gets worse as the visit continues with no sign of improvement.
Some of our rules and guidelines:
1. $55 per hour for each hour of visitation, which includes travel expenses to and from the visitation site. This hourly rate may
