Depending on what is the schedule that’s been worked out in terms of custody, is it 50/50 custody? Is it every weekend? Is it every other weekend? If there is a primary custodial parent that has been decided in the matter, either through mediation or by the courts, the other parent will always have rights to visitation. Georgia has a standard visitation schedule, which is usually every other weekend. However, depending on the relationship that the parents have, it could be every week. It could be four days on, you know, three days off. It depends on that person, but or on the parties specifically, but for sure if there is one parent that has primary custodial rights, the other parent absolutely will get visitation. That is an automatic right.

Atlanta, GA family law attorney Judith Delus Montgomery talks about having custodial rights and where visitation ties in when deciding child support. Depending on the established custody schedule, the involved parties may have worked out arrangements such as 50/50 custody, every weekend, or every other weekend. In cases where a primary custodial parent is determined through mediation or court proceedings, the non-custodial parent retains rights to visitation. Georgia follows a standard visitation schedule, typically involving every other weekend. However, the frequency of visitation can vary based on the parents’ relationship, potentially extending to every week or adopting a schedule like four days on and three days off. The specific arrangement depends on the parties involved. Importantly, if one parent holds primary custodial rights, the other parent automatically has the right to visitation.
