Child Custody/ Visitation Rights Committed to Your Case

Child Custody Lawyers in Corpus Christi

How is Child Custody Determined in Texas?

There are two main types of custody that can be granted: Sole custody and joint custody. While custody is granted, a parenting plan should be put in place to address the finer details of how and when the child will be staying with each parent. If you and your partner are able to come to an agreement, it can help keep your family law matter out of court.

However, in high-conflict cases, sometimes litigation is necessary. If you do litigate the matter, child custody will be determined by a judge in family court.

When ordering custody, the judge will consider:

  • The amount of time each parent has to spend with the child
  • If there is any history of substance abuse or domestic violence
  • How much time each parent currently spends with the child
  • The existing emotional ties between the parents and the child

It is important to remember that when children are involved in a family law dispute or divorce proceedings, you should do everything possible to prioritize their needs above all else. Our Corpus Christi custody lawyer can represent you and your child’s best interest.
