Messy divorces where children are used as pawns mean grandparents have to wait for months despite taking their case to court.BARCELONA – Blanca González Cordón is 65 years old and lives in Córdoba. She hasn't seen her grandchildren since 2005. It's not because she doesn't want to, but because the mother, now separated from her son, refuses to grant her access.
In 97 percent of divorce cases, judges give custody to the mother. The father's access is governed by the law, but if the mother doesn't play by the rules, grandparents can easily be left out of the picture.
Until now, most were resigned to their situation, but a growing number of grandparents are taking legal action to defend their right to see their grandchildren.
A change to the law in 2005 specifically points out the rights of grandparents to see their grandchildren, stating that if they are denied access they can put the matter before a judge. The problem is that outside the main cities, courts are not equipped to deal with such cases. This can mean waiting months.

Before you head out to explore the new city, make sure your paperwork's all done by referring to our guide.
