Custody In Texas

In Texas custody is known as conservatorship. Parents are often named joint managing conservators, meaning they typically have equal say in important decision-making authority for the child, such as education and health care. The parent providing the primary residence is called the primary parent.

Best Interests Of The Child

In all cases, custody is determined by what is in the child’s best interest. The judge will determine the child’s best interest based on several factors such as:

• — The ability of the parent to care for the child
• — The ability to co-parent with the other parent
• — The physical and emotional needs of the child
• — The fitness and stability of the parent
