FAQs
Yes, Texas allows custody modifications if your circumstances have changed significantly, including relocation, changed needs of the child, or other substantial developments.
Physical conservatorship refers to where the child lives, while legal conservatorship involves the rights and duties to make important decisions about the child’s upbringing, education, and health care.
The process length depends on whether parents can agree on terms or if the case requires litigation. Cases resolved by agreement move faster than those that go to trial.
