Child Custody Representation for Lewisville Parents

When parents separate or divorce in Texas, decisions about child custody can be among the most emotional and difficult matters to resolve. Courts in Lewisville and across the state focus on determining arrangements that serve the child’s best interests. Factors include the child’s emotional and physical needs, the stability of each parent’s home environment, and the ability of both parents to support the child’s development.

Custody, known legally in Texas as “conservatorship,” may be awarded to one or both parents. Joint conservatorship allows both parents to share decision-making responsibilities, while sole conservatorship grants one parent the authority to make key choices about education, healthcare, and other major issues. In addition, visitation schedules (“possession and access” under Texas law) must be established to ensure the child maintains a strong relationship with both parents whenever possible. An attorney can advocate for fair custody terms that protect your parental rights while keeping your child’s well-being at the center of the case.

Divorce Issues in Texas

Divorce in Texas involves more than ending a marriage. It also requires dividing property, resolving financial support, and making decisions about children. Texas follows community property laws, which means that most property and debts acquired during the marriage are considered jointly owned and must be divided equitably between spouses. While “equitable” does not always mean an exact 50-50 split, courts strive to distribute assets fairly, taking into account factors such as income, contributions to the household, and future earning capacity.

Spousal maintenance, often referred to as alimony, may be another key issue in your divorce. Courts may award support when one spouse lacks sufficient resources to meet basic needs and the other has the ability to pay.

If the spouses cannot agree on alimony outside of court, the court will evaluate the couple’s circumstances to make a determination, considering multiple factors like the length of the marriage and each spouse’s financial means. However, keep in mind that Texas courts only award alimony in specific situations.

Should I Sign a Prenup?

A prenuptial agreement, or “prenup,” is a valuable planning tool for couples preparing to marry in Texas. Far from being a sign of mistrust, a prenup provides clarity and security by outlining how assets and debts will be handled if the marriage ends in divorce. These agreements are especially useful for individuals entering marriage with significant personal property, business interests, or children from prior relationships.

Prenups can also address spousal maintenance, inheritance rights, and other financial matters, reducing the potential for disputes later on. By setting expectations in advance, couples can avoid costly litigation and protect the assets most important to them. An experienced family law attorney can draft an enforceable agreement that reflects your unique needs while complying with Texas law.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Words cannot truly express the gratitude I have for Claudia Brice and the Ramage Law Group. They stood by me through a year long custody battle that was one of the hardest seasons of my life. When my son’s dad tried to take away the most important person in my world just to avoid child support, I knew I needed someone strong, relentless, and compassionate and that’s exactly what I found.  I had the privilege of working closely with Claudia Brice, Jackie Bell, and Caitlyn Politz, and every single one of them went above and beyond. They were organized, responsive, and immediately took action to protect my son and me. They made me feel cared for not just as a client but as a person.

Claudia is more than just an attorney she is a SUPERWOMAN in law and a true fighter with the heart of a protector. She is humble, kind, and understanding, yet fierce in the courtroom. She made sure I understood my rights and options every step of the way and even in the middle of all the stress and heartache, her funny sense of humor made me laugh when I thought I couldn’t anymore. Sitting beside her in court, I felt a peace and confidence I never thought I’d feel during such a painful time, because I knew she was fighting as if it were her own family on the line.

I will forever recommend Claudia Brice and the Ramage Law Group to anyone facing a family battle. Claudia, thank you from the bottom of my heart! ❤️

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thomas with Ramage Law Group is absolutely phenomenal. He was always available to assist, answer questions that he could answer, and listened- he didn’t interrupt, he wasn’t rude, he just listened. As a mom of a child with disabilities who desperately needed assistance, it meant a lot. Dr. Brinkman even took the time out to talk to me. Although I did not receive services due to services were no longer needed, this is going to be the first place I call if I ever need services. Thank you, Ramage Law Group.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Although I did not sign the contract and chose a different lawyer, I can say that the Ramage law group is very responsive and dedicated to help solve your legal challenges.
Noteworthy is Crystal the Client intake coordinator, who is very polite, responsive and supportive. This is a team who I believe would have your back from start to finish and make sure you are informed of every document, response, hearing, option or challenge especially in a timely manner and make sure that they are advocating and fighting for your rights every step of they way.
Thank you.
