Key Insights into Alabama Visitation Guidelines
In most situations, it is important that both parents be involved in their children's lives. When only one parent is awarded physical custody, the court will typically grant the other (noncustodial) parent visitation rights.
Creating a Tailored Child Visitation Schedule
The determination of a visitation schedule will depend on the circumstances of each case, with the children's best interests as the standard for the court’s decision. It is common for each county to have standard visitation schedules that are utilized by the judges within that county. However, parents frequently work together to create their own, customized, agreed upon visitation schedule that work best for their children.

Understanding Supervised Visitation Guidelines in Huntsville
In rare situations, the court may require that a parent’s visitation with their children be supervised by a third party. Typically, this is happens when the court believes that the children’s safety would otherwise be compromised when visiting with a parent who has:
- a history of domestic violence;
- a history of child abuse;
- an untreated alcohol or drug addiction; or,
- a serious untreated mental health issue.
If the court allows unsupervised visitation given the above circumstances, there may be alternative restrictions, such as denying overnight visits, ordering a parent to abstain from alcohol or drug use before and during the visitation, alcohol and drug testing, or restrictions on the locations where visitation can take place.
Visitation can be a complex matter to resolve, as it includes a detailed schedule that the court must approve. Nonetheless, Rebekah L. Graham & Associates can help you prepare for negotiation, mediation, or litigation to settle your visitation disputes. The firm is deeply committed to protecting your right to a relationship with your children and protecting your children’s safety.
