How does the court determine child custody?
Typically, Texas courts name divorcing parents joint managing conservators. One parent is awarded primary physical custody, and the other is often required to pay child support. Both parents share many rights, such as the authority to consult with the child’s school officials and doctors, and the parent who does not have physical custody will arrange a vitiation schedule. Because child custody matters are such important and emotional aspects of divorce proceedings, it is vital that you discuss your situation with an experienced family law attorney so that your parental rights are protected. If you are going through a divorce, or need legal representation regarding a nuptial agreement or custody matter, you need the experience and personal attention of a dedicated family law attorney.
