Split Custody- Is it right for you and your family?

If you want to related guideline confidentiality Texas Child Law experience, So you can better suggestions in Split Custody- Is it right for you and your family? Houston Divorce Attorney : One of the goals that many potential clients of the Law Office of Bryan Fagan, PLLC have is to be able to see their child as much as the other parent once their family law case is done and over with. It doesn’t matter if we are talking about a child custody or divorce case- parents seem to want the same thing a lot of the time. This goal is usually held by the parent who believes that their child’s other parent will be the one to have primary conservatorship of the child (where the child lives with him or her primarily). The question that I always ask these folks is whether or not they’ve considered if a split custody situation is really something that they should aim for.

This means that not only will you become engaged financially, relationally and logistically in a family law case but you will be emotionally invested in the case as well.
