Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: modification affidavit

Based on what you have written, the process is generally: (i) for the individual to file a petition to modify the parent-child relationship, (ii) have the opposing side served with the petition (unless the other side waives service), (iii) proceed to litigation (if required). The costs and time required are associated to the parties being agreeable or contesting to the modified terms. If my law firm can assist you with this legal issue or any other legal matter, please contact my legal assistant Jennifer ([email protected]) to arrange for an initial consultation.

Re: modification affidavit

The procedure is to file a Petition to Modify, have the other party served, set it for temporary hearing (if warranted), then proceed as a litigation case. The process after filing will depend upon what you are seeking to modify, and if the other party is in agreement, or contesting the changes. It can be very simple, or it can get very complicated, or somewhere in between. The cost is dependent upon how contested it will be. Consult with an attorney regarding the changes you are seeking.
