Access,Custody and Guardianship in Ireland | BusinessAndLegal.ie

Access

The law considers that the right to access to a parent is in fact a right of the child; this is why an access to a child order will be decided by the Court whilst looking at what is in the best interests of the child.

Generally though it is very unusual for a Court to not grant a parent access to their child and may, where necessary, make a supervised access order to allow to this to happen where the circumstances demand it.

This is part of the Family Law in Ireland series. If you have a question pleases use the Contact form.
