Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

You need to hire a private attorney.

I would not go to the TX A G & expect them to help you.

A private attorney is the way to go -- especially if one parent is abusing drugs & alcohol. You definately need an attorney as your advocate. Don't expect the TX AG to help you -- their primary job is to collect child support -- that's it!

Good luck!

I'm not taking cases because my mom just died.

You might want to talk to Patricia Bushman at 713-807-9405. Her first appointment is FREE. Tell her that I sent you. I rent space in her office. She offers payment plans. She is tough in the courtroom. She has a lot of courtroom experience. Her prices are very reasonable for her level of experience.

Good luck!
