Providing Guidance in Fort Worth Child Custody Cases

When addressing child custody issues, there are a number of legal considerations that you may need to take into account. It is important for you and the other parent to understand your rights and responsibilities under Texas law when it comes to child custody matters. This will ensure that you will be able to make decisions that will protect your parental rights while also taking your children's ongoing health, safety, and overall well-being into consideration. Our experienced child custody lawyer can help guide you through this process and provide advice on how best to approach these complex legal issues.

We can assist with issues related to:

  • Joint custody - Legal custody is known as conservatorship in Texas, and in the majority of cases, parents will be able to share joint managing conservatorship of their children. This means that both parents will have authority when it comes to making decisions regarding their children's education, health care, and other important matters. As you establish joint custody arrangements, you will need to make sure you understand your rights and responsibilities, and you may need to make provisions to ensure that you and the other parent will be able to work together and communicate with each other as you make decisions about how your children will be raised.
  • Sole custody - In some cases, such as when a parent has engaged in domestic abuse or has abandoned the family, sole managing conservatorship may be appropriate. We can help you determine whether you may be named the sole managing conservator of your children, and we can help you understand your rights and your obligations toward your children and the other parent in these situations.
  • Visitation - Most of the time, both parents will have the right to regular "possession and access" of their children. Visitation schedules will need to be created that clearly outline when each parent will spend time with the children. We can help you establish a visitation schedule that is in your children's best interests, ensuring that they will be able to live in a safe, healthy environment and maintain positive relationships with both parents.
  • Child relocation - A parent's relocation to a different city, county, or state can be a complex issue when it comes to child custody, as it may involve changing the child's home environment and potentially their school district. It is important for parents to understand the laws related to child relocation in Texas, including when a parent may pursue a relocation request, when a parent may contest a planned relocation, and the specific steps that must be taken before a child can be relocated.
  • Grandparents' rights - In Texas, grandparents may have the legal right to seek court-ordered possession of and access to their grandchildren. These are known as grandparents' visitation rights. Visitation may be granted in certain circumstances if one of the child's parents is not allowing the child to spend time or have contact with grandparents. Our family law attorney can provide guidance for grandparents in these cases, helping them determine the steps they can take to ensure that they will be able to maintain ongoing relationships with their grandchildren.
