Grandparent & Non-parent Rights

These cases are governed by strict legal standards. Not every situation gives rise to a viable legal claim or defense, and determining whether the law supports a case requires careful evaluation from the outset.

Grandparent and non-parent cases often involve competing interests between a parent’s constitutional rights and the circumstances under which Texas law permits someone other than a parent to seek legal involvement with a child.

A Realistic, Informed Approach

We are direct about what the law allows—and what it does not. These cases require careful analysis of the facts and whether they satisfy the legal requirements established by Texas law, not simply whether a situation feels unfair.

We ask the right questions early and provide clear, informed guidance so clients understand their legal position before moving forward.

Representation for Parents, Grandparents & Non-Parents

We represent parents seeking to preserve their constitutional rights to make decisions concerning their children, as well as grandparents and non-parents seeking conservatorship, possession, or visitation where Texas law permits.

Whether pursuing or defending these claims, each case requires careful factual development, a thorough understanding of the applicable legal standards, and strategic advocacy focused on protecting our clients’ rights and serving the child’s best interests.

Practical, Experienced Advocacy

These matters often involve complex family dynamics and can significantly affect long-term parent-child relationships. We provide practical legal advice, realistic expectations, and experienced courtroom representation designed to protect our clients’ interests while navigating the unique legal standards governing grandparent and non-parent rights.
