Daughter-in-law refuses to let me see visit or have contact with granddaughter would like to file motion for visitation
A: I'm sorry that you are going through this. Generally, grandparents do have visitation rights but it is limited to certain situations by Ohio law. While you can file a motion pro se (without an attorney), it is likely in your best interests to find an attorney to review your case and help you complete this task. You can use the find a lawyer section of this website or contact the bar association closest to the court which would have jurisdiction over the child (usually the county court in which the child lives).
