How Child Custody Works in Texas
In Texas, custody is legally called conservatorship, outlining each parent's rights and responsibilities in raising their child. Courts across Greater Houston focus on what serves the child's best interests, balancing stability, safety, and meaningful relationships with both parents whenever possible.
At Bastine Law Group, we take time to understand your family's unique circumstances. Our team provides steady guidance to help you navigate custody decisions, modifications, or disputes while protecting your role as a parent.
Common Reasons Parents Seek Custody Representation
- Divorce or legal separation
- Paternity actions for unmarried parents
- Modifications to custody or visitation orders
- Relocation impacting parenting time
- Allegations of neglect, abuse, or instability
- Disputes over education, healthcare, or major decisions
Custody cases are often emotionally charged. We approach these matters with compassion, helping parents protect their rights while focusing on their child’s long-term stability.

Types of Conservatorships
Joint Managing Conservatorship (JMC)
The most common arrangement, where both parents share decision-making rights. One parent is typically named the primary custodial parent, while the other has structured visitation.
Sole Managing Conservatorship
If the court determines one parent cannot provide a stable or safe environment, sole conservatorship may be awarded to the other. This includes decisions about the child's residence, education, medical care, and more.
Possessory Conservatorship
A possessory conservator usually has visitation rights and access to important information regarding the child but does not share decision-making authority.
Custody arrangements can be complex, especially when concerns about safety, relocation, or disagreements arise. Our team works alongside parents to help them approach these sensitive matters with preparation and clarity.
