About Child Custody in Texas
Texas refers to child custody as “conservatorship.” Parents can share custody of their children in "joint managing conservatorship," or one parent can maintain primary custody, also known as "sole managing conservatorship." Courts make decisions based on what they believe to be in the best interests of the child.
In most cases, parents are given the opportunity to visit and spend time with their child. It is rare for a court to deny a parent access to a child unless they have demonstrated violent and abusive behavior, or have demonstrated little interest in the safety and well-being of their children.
If parents cannot come to an agreement on custody, a court may institute joint custody if:
- It will benefit the child’s mental and emotional health
- It will benefit the child’s financial and social welfare
- It will encourage parents to maintain a civil relationship on behalf of their child
- Both parents live relatively close to each other
- The child is at least 12 years old and has a preference for which parent they stay with
While difficult for parents, divorce is often just as hard on children. This is not to say it will not benefit them in the long-run. Being a child of divorce is much healthier than being stuck in a family where the parents have irreconcilable differences. Both parents can still have a positive relationship with their children after a divorce.

I would recommend this firm, and I have actually since I just received my final divorce decree. I would like to say that Miranda is very responsive, and will email me back in a very timely manner. She was able to answer all of my questions, and was very quick to send everything. The whole team is very professional, and thank God my case was sent quick. I have a child, and my ex spouse was able to sign virtually with the notary. Everything is electronic now since Covid hit so yuppie!!! Highly recommended- Juana

I consider Isabela very wise and very knowledgeable attorney and that she will not just do her best to get you where you need to be but she will not leave you there hurting and in pain she will go through the storm with you, right next to you. Isabela is not only among the best but I consider her the best because she will take your hand and put forth much effort to help you get over the stump, hill, or mountain that you are facing in your life with in the civil matters that need to be handled. I hired Isabela as my attorney in a divorce matter, she looked out for the best in my interest and in the matter and gave me great advice. If I was to call her office I either had an answer or she got back with me as soon as possible and had answer for me. I will also say that Isabela never left my side nor did she leave me to stand alone no matter what the case or scenario, even when I was short of funds to pay her, she did not leave my side. Isabela stayed with me through the whole case and her assistants and other attorneys in the office are just as great. I have to say that Pooja was very helpful in mediation she is very knowledgeable and will look out for your best interest, I really appreciated Pooja and her assistance. Pooja you are a great attorney and I am glad I got to sit next to you again thank you. I have to say in all that Isabela and her office are a great team and I would recommend her to anybody that is in need of an unequivocal, unconditional, and dedicated attorney. Thank you for all you did for me.- Gabriel
