How Does Texas Award Child Custody?

According to state law, child custody is always awarded in the best interests of the child, and the child’s well-being is always taken into consideration when determining which parent will receive custody. Family law judges will aim to equally split the care and responsibilities of a child, but some cases may result in sole custody being granted to one parent, and visitation being granted to the other.

When awarding child custody, a judge will consider:

• The responsibilities of raising the child, including the child’s age and health
• The health of the parents
• The income and stability of the parents
• Any criminal history of the parents
• The involvement of the parents’ in the child’s school or extracurricular activities

Non-custodial parents are often granted visitation, and visitation schedules are strictly set by the courts. Visitation may be on a flexible basis, but any modifications to custody agreements or visitation schedules must first be approved by a Texas Family Court.
