If the child neglect and endangerment rises to a serious level, you may be able to ask the courts to terminate the parental rights for your ex-spouse. This is not an easy decision to win, as Colorado courts focus on trying to give both parents equal time with the child as much as possible. However, if you can show that your ex-spouse abandoned the child during his or her custody time, committed neglect that led to physical injury for the child, or committed some sort of abuse against the child, any of these situations could lead to a termination of parental rights. Our child custody lawyer is ready to help you prove your allegations in this extremely serious type of case.
