Understanding Custody (Conservatorship) in Texas

Conservatorship is the legal term for child custody in Texas. Different kinds of conservators are recognized by the courts:

  • Managing Conservator – The parent who typically makes important decisions for the child
  • Possessory Conservator – Usually the parent who has visitation rights

Subcategories include:

  • Sole Managing Conservator
  • Joint Managing Conservator

Depending on the circumstances of each parent, Texas courts may also divide physical custody, or where the child resides primarily, and legal custody, or the authority to make decisions.
