Understanding Conservatorship in Texas
In Texas, the term “conservatorship” is used in place of custody. The parent awarded custody is referred to as the “conservator.” There are several types of conservatorship under Texas law:
- Managing Conservator – Typically responsible for major decisions regarding the child’s welfare
- Possessory Conservator – Granted visitation or access to the child
- Sole Managing Conservator – One parent is granted exclusive rights
- Joint Managing Conservator – Both parents share rights and responsibilities
The court carefully evaluates each parent’s capacity to provide a supportive and stable environment before making conservatorship decisions.
Factors Considered by the Court
When determining conservatorship, Texas courts evaluate what serves the best interests of the child, taking into account:
- The emotional bond between the child and each parent
- Each parent’s ability to co-parent and maintain stability
- Proximity between parents’ residences
- History of substance abuse or domestic violence
- Parental cooperation and communication
- Overall health, employment, and moral character of each parent
Our attorneys are here to advocate for your rights while promoting solutions that reflect your child’s emotional and physical needs.
Mediation: A Child-Centered Approach
Mediation is often encouraged by Texas courts as a way to resolve custody issues without prolonged conflict. At the Law Office of Bryan Fagan, PLLC, we provide skilled mediation services designed to:
- Minimize emotional stress for children
- Encourage cooperative parenting
- Produce custody agreements tailored to your family’s needs
- Reduce the need for courtroom litigation
