Visitation is parenting time with the child. In most cases, it is important that both parents are involved in a child's life. If the parties cannot agree regarding visitation time, then an attorney experienced in family law becomes essential. As with custody proceedings, the court will normally require the parties to attend a parenting class and participate in mediation. This is an opportunity for the parents to reach agreement. If the mediation process is unsuccessful, then the court will make the decision.
