Child custody deals with custodial awards or determinations involving a minor child. A minor is legally defined in Texas as any child under the age of eighteen (18). Custody battles most often arise in situations where the parents cannot reach an agreement on who will have custody of their child following their divorce.

The family bonds between children and their grandparents are special. Unfortunately these relationships are often one of the first casualties of a divorce.

When child custody and child visitation is finalized, grandmothers and grandfathers (on the non-custodial parent's side) often lose contact with their grandchildren through no fault of their own-for example, when a custodial parent moves away, far out of reach of grandparents on the other side of the family.Our law firm strongly believes in grandparents' rights and in encouraging healthy relationships between the generations.
