In West Virginia, a father is granted visitation if paternity has been established. The courts encourage parents to work out a visitation agreement on their own, but if they cannot a judge will do so based upon the information available about the environment and availability of each parent.
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.

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.
I believe dower and courtesy rights were abolished in WV in 1992.
Dower rights in West Virginia was the right of a woman to inherit the property of the husband if he died first. Dower rights of this nature are no longer used in West Virginia. It is more complicated today with children inheriting along with the wife.
