When Do Grandparents Have Standing?

- Situations involving a parent who may be deceased, incarcerated, incompetent, or whose rights have been terminated (or parents divorced).
- Extended caretaking or residence with a grandparent that may support intervention in a SAPCR (lawsuit affecting the parent-child relationship).

Our Process
- Case Review to evaluate standing and the child’s best interests.
- Filing a petition to establish visitation or conservatorship, or to intervene in an existing case.
- Mediation to seek workable parenting plans and safe, structured access.
- Hearing with targeted evidence supporting the requested relief.

I called for a familly attorney and Brandi went above and beyond to help me .His team is amazing,highly recommend!!
Mr Herbig wrongly prepared a deed for one of his client.
He put the wrong legal description on the document and put my property instead of his client. This is a huge mistake and we have been requesting a correction for weeks. His paralegal is extremely rude on the phone and essentially said: :sue us, here is our adress"
I have never seen such degree of unprofessionalism. She even asked me if I was the ex husband of his client. After telling her 3 times that I have nothing to do with her client or the ex-husband and they made a mistake, she said that I should find the ex-husband myself.
She acknowledged that her client has no ownership interest in the property and even though they made the mistake, I should fix it.
