Parenting Plans and Temporary Custody

In the state of Texas, it is assumed that some form of shared parenting will be the norm. The law further assumes that spending time with both parents is in the best interests of the child, and both parents should have their fair share in parental decisions.

A parent plan addresses physical custody, which outlines the residential schedule, and legal custody, which details whether one or both parents have rights to make decisions for the child, such as religious upbringing, education, healthcare and activities.

Preparation is key in cases of temporary orders. When custody petitions or divorce papers are filed, a hearing will be set by the court, to issue temporary custody, visitation and child support orders.

This step provides stability to a family when divorce matters need to be organized. If a custody case proceeds to trial, temporary orders play a major role in determining who is awarded custody. Professional legal counsel is crucial at every step.
