Child Custody & Visitation

Texas Child Custody, Parenting Time, and Visitation Issues

In our experience with divorce cases, few issues generate more intricate, varied, or deeply personal responses and anxieties than those concerning child custody, visitation rights and parenting time. What's at stake is nothing less than the best interest and well-being of your children and your future relationship with them. If you have questions about your custody arrangements or your visitation rights in Texas contact an experienced Austin, Houston or San Antonio child custody attorney at Bertolino LLP.

From a divorce lawyer's standpoint, it's sometimes hard to tell when child custody problems will take center stage in an individual case. We've seen situations where the spouses had no trouble resolving property division issues on mutually acceptable terms only to engage in long and bitter litigation on parenting issues, and we've seen the opposite as well--sometimes the parents work well together on issues concerning the children, but contest every aspect of property division or alimony.

No matter how easy or difficult it will be in your case to resolve any actual or potential difficulties concerning child custody, you can depend on the Austin child custody attorneys or Houston child custody attorneys or San Antonio child custody attorneys of Bertolino LLP to give you a solid understanding of your legal rights and obligations and to help you best define your objectives in terms of the best interests of your children. Our years of experience in family law practice also enable us to help you through such Family Court processes as parental evaluation, parenting classes, and mediation when ordered by the judge or agreed to by the parties.

Both spouses are presumed to be fit and capable parents unless evidence of family violence, drug abuse, or similar problems casts doubt upon the ability of one parent or the other to have primary physical custody or even to have unsupervised visitation time with the children. No matter what your situation involves, we can advise you about the legal barriers that can interfere with a meaningful parent-child relationship and help you overcome them. We also know how to best protect your interests in the event that your divorcing spouse raises false accusations of domestic violence in order to undermine your fitness as a parent in the eyes of the Family Court.

Our child custody lawyers can also help you in special child custody situations that can arise after the divorce decree is final through the modification or enforcement process. Our child custody attorneys can also handle difficult visitation problems that can arise in military divorce cases when one parent is on a long overseas deployment. Serious problems can also arise when the parent with primary physical child custody decides to move to a distant city or out of state.
