Modification of Child Custody

Houston Attorney for Your Changing Child Custody Needs

As children grow, as families change, court orders regarding joint physical custody, legal custody and visitation sometimes need to be changed as well. When they do, parents can contact me for efficient and effective legal representation regarding modification of child custody. At the Houston, Texas, office of Bruce C. Zivley, Attorney at Law, I have been helping families through the practice of law for 25 years. One of my greatest sources of pride is the assistance I've given to parents, often helping them develop and strengthen the relationships they have with their children.

As a seasoned and knowledgeable lawyer, I have in-depth knowledge of Texas law on the modification of child custody. I am board-certified in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Using my knowledge, I help parents anticipate how Texas law will affect their unique situations. I guide them through the child custody modification process, helping them get the best possible results.

If you are being affected by a court order for child custody or visitation, I can help you ask the court to modify or enforce the order. Texas courts look at families' situations when they are considering granting modifications of child custody. They ask about things, like whether the modification is in the best interest of the child. They usually look to see if circumstances have materially and substantially changed since the court made the order, and they can take into account changes in each child's residence and the care a parent is able to give.
