But recently rights of grandparents have been started in most states. This site will help.

Grandparents do have the legal right to file for visitations in WV: Grandparents may get visitations when a court orders divorce or separate maintenance and the grandparents child fails to appear and defend the Action or when the whereabouts of that parent are unknown to both the other parent and the grandparent seeking visitation. After a decree of divorce annulment or separate maintenance has been entered, grandparent may petition for visitation when that grandparent's child is the noncustodial parent that refused,failed or has been unable to have visitation for a period of six months or more or has been precluded from visitation by a court order or is in the Armed Services and stationed more than one hundred miles from the state border and the grandparent had been refused visitation with the child by the custodial parent for a period of six months or more. A grandparent whose child is deceased may also petiton for visitation. Grandparent visitation is also permitted when the child has resided with the grandparent and the parents have resided elsewhere without significant interruption for a period six consecutive months or more within the pervious two year period the child was removed from the home of the grandparent by the parent,and the removing parent has refused to allow the grandparents visitation,in all cases,the visitation must be found to be in the child's best interest.
