Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

child custody/child support

I had a son with a girl a while back and when he was born the girl said that she didn't want me around. Now all I want is to be a part of his life. I don't know where to start to get joint custody and to not get shafted by the state? What do I do?

Re: child custody/child support

"a while back" does not tell me much. A paternity suit is the generally accepted method of establishing parental rights. Your situation would best be handled by your securing competent family law counsel and I would suggest that you find someone in the county where the mother and child live. You need to have a discussion with that lawyer.
