Ask a Lawyer: Can grandparents interfere in negotiating a settlement?Posted by: Dads Divorce on Oct 6, 2004   |

Question:
My question is very simple. My ex wife and I are negotiating a settlement, prefeably a shared custody which we feel is best for the children. Her father has taken over all negotiations and made several references to court action if I dont accept his tentative agreement. What is the law's position on the grandparent getting so invoklved in matters like this? (Texas)? Many thanks
Answer:
I cannot answer your question specifically to the laws of Texas as I am not licensed to practice law in that State. In my jurisdiction, intervention by grandparents is only appropriate if there is an issue with the parents. Assuming you are both willing and competent, he should not be involved.
