Yes. As an attorney with decades of experience here in New Jersey, I can assure you that you certainly have a right to overnight parenting time with your child. Only exceptional circumstances would stand in your attorney’s way to achieve overnight parenting time in a court order from a New Jersey Family Court. An example would be a substance abuse issue that would place the child’s welfare in jeopardy.
It is also important to note that you should not allow time to pass by before hiring a lawyer to enforce your rights as a parent for overnight parenting time. Otherwise, the passage of time would actually work against you as the Court shall always base decisions upon the best interests of the child. Therefore, if years go bye without exercising overnight parenting time, this could delay the process as a reunification period between yourself and your child may be ordered. All told, if you are not enjoying parenting time with your child, the lawyers at our law firm can help you obtain it.
