The role of a Houston divorce attorney who helps keep children at the center of every decision in your case.
Children, either adopted or biological, are some of the most affected parties in a divorce. Therefore, every decision that needs to be made regarding the children, either during or after a divorce, should be in the children's best interests. Most times, especially where cruelty is involved, divorce might be the only way through which your child might eventually enjoy a healthy living environment.
Primary residence, conservatorship, and child support are often the most popular issues that arise during the determination a child custody matter.
Primary Residence
In Texas, child custody is known as conservatorship. In some situations, both parents will seek either joint or sole managing conservatorship. In contested child custody cases surrounding conservatorship, it is important for parents to remember that children have a right to live with and be cared for by both parents, unless a situation is presented to the court that a parent is not making good decisions, which is or could reasonable negatively impact the child. Based on the Texas Family Code there is a presumption that it is in the best interest of the child that both parents should be named joint managing conservators, which would allow both parents to make decisions regarding the children's health, education, and medical needs either subject to agreement of the other parent or independently after notice to the other parent.
Texas does not allow the court to determine which parent the child should live with solely based on gender. Rather the court has to consider the needs of the child based on the Holley Factors. Therefore, it is a misconception that it is always the mother who ends up with the children at all times. If you are a father or mother who has valid reasons on why your child or children are best placed to live with you, our Houston divorce attorney and child custody attorney can advise you on the information and evidence you will need to present to a strong case for primary conservatorship.
Power of Mediation
Parents can keep their children from feeling the pressure of choosing one parent over the other and to keep their children's needs at the forefront by utilizing the mediation process to finalize their case. In contested cases that go to trial, judges will only hear a small portion of the parties life, including the needs of the children. Parents know their children's needs and schedules best, so when at all possible, it always better for parents to be creative in creating an order that suits their child's needs and move away from the cookie-cutter standard provisions required by the Texas Family Code.
How we can help with child support arrangements.

The Texas Family Code includes a provisions that details out guideline child support that is based on a parent's net resources. Child support is largely a straight numbers game, but Attorney, Ashley Nicole Green, is known for creating creative ways to ensure that the needs of the child is being met while balancing the parents ability to continue to have a fulfilled relationship with their child by providing for the child's basic needs and the parent's ability to engage in family activity.
