Central Texas Child Custody Lawyers
Child custody matters can be some of the most highly contested and painful aspects of a divorce proceeding. Both parents want what is best for the children but their opinions on the matter are often at opposite ends of the spectrum. Both parents have rights in these cases. Be sure that you have an experienced family law attorney on your side who will fight to protect them.
The court presumes that both parents will serve as joint managing conservators according to a parenting plan. Parenting plans are comprehensive documents that define each parent's responsibility and decision-making authority with regard to the children. Parenting plans frequently include provisions for physical and legal custody, who pays for certain expenses such as healthcare and daycare, visitation schedules, child support and other considerations.
It is in everyone's best interests for the parents work through their child custody disputes and reach agreement on all aspects of the parenting plan. If they don't, the court will create one for them. In the majority of cases, the court will approve a negotiated parenting plan as long as it accommodates the best interests of the children.
