Yes, the simplest way to start is get a Power of Attorney to exercise access rights

Grandparents had no legal right of access to their grandchild, and parents had complete authority to grant or deny the privilege of visitation. Ohio has authorized grandparent companionship or visitation rights by statute in three circumstances: (1) when married parents terminate their marriage or separate, (2) when a parent of a child is deceased, and (3) when the child is born to an unmarried woman. In such cases, a court may order reasonable isitation if it is in the best interest of the child.
No, not at all. In some states grandparents have the right to petition for visitation but not in all and in that case the judge will hear your side as well.
If you parents give up their rights or their rights are taken away and the judge gives it to the grandparents after they apply.
The court considers many factors before deciding the visitation rights of convicted felons. They consider the crime committed and nature of the sentence.
In the state of Ohio grandparents have rights. First try talking to the parent that is preventing the visitation. Offer something up that will be helpful to the single parent like babysitting while they grocery shop. If that doesn't work try contacting your county or states child support division. Ours has questions and answers on the website for the "rights of a grandparent" good luck and god bless you. It varies from state to state. Will usually need a court order.
See a lawyer. I believe in the state of Ohio there are laws that grand parents may have pertaining to there grandchildren and the rights to visitation.
In ohio with her grandparents
Once the father's paternity has been established in court she has to be able to prove he is unfit or the court will allow him his rights. If she refuses even though there is a visitation order she would be in contempt of a court order and could eventually lose custody if she continues to interfere with his visits.
Depends on which family member. Grandparents are the only family members who have visitation right in the law in some states. Other family members have to rely in a good relationship with the parents.
