Custody vs. Conservatorship in Texas
Conservatorship is the official term for “custody” in Texas. Parents can be designated as either:
- Managing Conservator
- Possessory Conservator
These roles are typically part of:
- Joint Managing Conservatorship (JMC) – where both parents share decision-making authority.
- Sole Managing Conservatorship (SMC) – where one parent holds primary legal responsibility.
Our attorneys will explain these terms clearly and help you seek a conservatorship arrangement that supports your child’s best interests.

Understanding Custody Arrangements in Texas
Texas law prioritizes the well-being of the child when determining custody arrangements. Common forms of custody include:
- Joint Custody: Shared physical and/or legal responsibilities.
- Sole Custody: One parent has primary authority and placement.
- Legal Custody: The right to make key life decisions on behalf of the child.
- Physical Custody: Refers to the child’s primary residence.
Our Alamo Heights legal team will guide you through these choices and help you develop a strategy that will give your child emotional support, stability, and continuity.
What Courts Consider in Child Custody Cases
To decide what is in the child’s best interests, Texas courts consider a variety of factors, such as:
- The child’s physical and emotional needs
- The capacity of each parent to create a secure, stable environment
- The relationship between each parent and the child at the moment
- Each parent’s readiness to support co-parenting
- Past history of substance abuse, abuse, or domestic violence
- The distance between the residences of the two parents
Our goal is to make a compelling argument that highlights your parental strengths and puts your child’s security and well-being first.
