Understanding Grandparent's Rights in Texas

Grandparent's rights cases can arise in various situations, such as divorce, parental death, or parental incarceration. In Texas, grandparents may seek visitation or custody rights if it is in the best interest of the child. Our experienced Dallas Grandparent's Rights attorneys can guide you through the legal process and help you understand your rights under Texas law.

Key points to consider in Grandparent's Rights cases include:

The child's relationship with the grandparent
The child's best interests
The parent's rights and wishes
The grandparent's ability to provide for the child

Whether you are seeking visitation rights or custody of your grandchild, our legal team at Mueller Family Law Group is here to advocate for you and protect your relationship with your grandchild.

When Do Grandparent's Rights Cases Occur?

Grandparents often find themselves involved in family law disputes when:

A child's parents divorce, and the court asks the grandparents to take custody of the child during the divorce, or the grandparents are asked to testify on behalf of a parent;
A court convicts a parent of abuse or neglect and asks the child's grandparents to take on custodial responsibilities;
A parent dies, is incarcerated, or is found incompetent, and the grandparents are asked to take custody;
A court terminates a parent-child relationship and requests that the grandparents take custody of the child;
A parent dies and names a grandparent as their child's conservator or guardian in their will, or;
A child lives with a grandparent for six or more months, and the grandparent decides to file a custody request.

Typically, parents must approve of a grandparent's request for custody before a grandparent can obtain legal custody of a child, although there are some exceptions to this rule. If you're already involved in a custody arrangement and want to learn more about modifying custody orders in Texas, visit our modifications page.

Grandparents who find themselves cut off from a grandchild may also wish to use legal procedures to reestablish contact, enabling them to visit their grandchild again.

At Mueller Family Law Group , our Dallas grandparent's rights attorneys can help you understand your rights and fight for the outcome you deserve in your case.
