Understanding Visitation Law in Utah
In Utah, visitation, formally called parenting time, is viewed as the legal right of a parent to maintain contact with their child. Visitation decisions are based on what best supports the child’s emotional, physical, and developmental needs. When determining visitation arrangements, courts consider factors that include:
- The stability and safety of the environment each parent provides
- The child’s age, health, and daily routines
- Each parent’s willingness to facilitate the other parent’s visitation
- Any history of abuse, neglect, or substance misuse
- The child’s relationship with each parent
Our attorneys help you understand these standards and build a strong case for the visitation outcome you seek.
