Grandparent Denied Access — What Can You Do?

14 March 2025 · Written by Adanna Akinfenwa

In the UK, grandparents don't have automatic legal rights to see their grandchildren, but can apply for a Child Arrangements Order if contact is denied.

Your Legal Options

You must first apply for permission from the court. The court considers the nature of your application, your connection with the child, and any risk of disruption.

We help grandparents prepare strong applications, draft supporting statements, and attend hearings with McKenzie Friend support.
