Child Custody

JT Borah represents clients living in Denton County who need legal assistance with child custody and visitation matters. We understand how difficult it can be to work with a former spouse or partner while focusing on the best interests of your child, and we will work hard to resolve your legal issues while treating your case with the privacy and sensitivity it deserves.

Many couples going through a divorce or legal separation have a difficult time reaching an agreement on child custody and visitation issues.  As you decide on how to best share the responsibilities of parenting, consider the following questions:

  • Where should your child or children reside?
  • Do you want to rotate custody of your children with your former spouse or partner?
  • How do you want to set up the visitation schedule?
  • How will you and your former spouse or partner make educational, medical, travel and other significant decisions affecting your child or children?

We advise clients who are going through a divorce or separation to keep in mind their children's present and future needs as they make these decisions. It is also crucial to consider each parent's financial situation, their economic potential, their ability and availability concerning caretaking responsibilities, and the bonds between your child and his or her siblings.

We can help you figure out how to approach your child custody and visitation issues whether you are just at the start of a divorce or separation, you are in the process of making these decisions, or you are having problems with or want to modify a court-ordered custody arrangement.
