Even though this strong presumption in favor of visitation rights exists, courts may impose restrictions on visitation by noncustodial parents. If a party convinces the court that visitation rights would be injurious to the childs best interests, then the court possesses the authority to deny visitation rights.
Yes, you can file first and you can do it without a lawyer in California. You ask the court for custody and visitation orders by filing a Request for Order (Form FL-300) and attaching a detailed parenting time plan such as the Child Custody and Visitation Application Attachment (FL-311).

Typically, a court needs to agree to withhold visitation if there is concrete concern that a child is unsafe when with the other parent.
