In West Virginia, non-wed parents have certain rights regarding their children, including the right to seek custody and visitation. However, the legal status of a non-wed parent can vary based on whether paternity has been established. If paternity is confirmed, non-wed fathers can pursue legal rights, while non-wed mothers generally have automatic rights to custody unless otherwise determined. It's important for non-wed parents to seek legal counsel to understand and navigate their specific rights and responsibilities.

Unless visitation rights for the non-custodial parent were allowed in the divorce paperwork, the custodial parent is completely within their rights to deny the non-custodial parent visitation....however, the non-custodial parent may sue for visitation rights.
They can petition for visitation but their success depends on the circumstances. It would be easier of the parents agreed to it, of course. In West Virginia conditions for grandparent visitation rights include:consideration of whether a parent is deceased,the child has resided with the grandparent and subsequently was removed by a parent, orthe grandparent in several circumstances has been denied visitation by a parent.Adoption cuts off all visitation rights of grandparents.
