We can advise you on any child custody issues. In Texas, conservatorship of the child involves decision-making about medical issues, education, religion and other issues. Parents can share conservatorship of the child. Parents can also share possession; possession is a schedule that provides for who will see the child and when. If you have questions about any child custody matter, contact The Law Office of Ryan S. Dougay.

More Information on Texas Child Custody

Texas law provides that, where parents have shown that they can co-parent, they will be named as joint conservators of the children involved. We will also work with the other side to establish a schedule for possession of the child. We can also try to come to agreement on child support in the same manner. If we cannot reach an agreement on child custody or child support, we can go to court to resolve these issues.

The Law Office of Ryan S. Dougay is prepared to represent parents on all types of child custody matters, and will also represent grandparents seeking a legal relationship with a grandchild. Grandparent rights have recently been limited to some extent, but we can advise you on your options as a grandparent.
