Courts historically were against fathers when it came to custody matters. For years, courts were much more likely to award a mother custody of her children rather than the father. Society condoned this inequity because the prevailing thought was that fathers should work outside the home and mothers should raise the children.
However, as the number of dual-income families rises and fathers take a greater role in rearing children, courts are awarding custody more frequently to fathers. If you are a father seeking custody of your child, you should seek counsel from a skilled family law attorney with experience fighting for fathers’ rights.
While Texas has a public policy of promoting contact between the child and both parents, you still need a strong advocate to guide the court in arranging meaningful contact and achieving your other goals relating to child custody and visitation.
At the Law Offices of Jamie L. Graham, we have worked over nine years advocating for the rights of fathers, including fathers in the military. San Antonio fathers’ rights lawyer Jamie Graham fights for your rights.
We can help you with custody and visitation issues, including issues involving parental alienation syndrome (PAS). Parental alienation is a condition where one parent turns a child against the other parent. This can be accomplished directly by one parent telling the child the other parent is bad or indirectly through comments and actions implying the other parent is unfit.
