Understanding Custody (Conservatorship) in Texas
In Texas, child custody is legally known as conservatorship. The courts recognize different types of conservators:
- Managing Conservator – usually the parent who makes key decisions for the child
- Possessory Conservator – typically the parent granted visitation rights
Subcategories include:
- Sole Managing Conservator
- Joint Managing Conservator
Texas courts may also divide legal custody (decision-making authority) and physical custody (where the child primarily resides), depending on each parent’s circumstances.

What Courts Consider in Custody Cases
Ellis County family courts, like others across Texas, base custody decisions on the best interests of the child. Key factors include:
- Each parent’s relationship with the child
- The ability to co-parent and cooperate
- Stability of each parent’s home environment
- The child’s emotional and physical needs
- Any history of domestic violence or substance abuse
