Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: Retraining Order

It is difficult, if not impossible to answer your questions without reviewing the TRO and the affidavit. He needs an attorney if he ever wants to see his child. The scheduled hearing is likely for the purpose of temporary orders regarding visitation, custody and child support. Often, final orders reflect the temporary orders. If he does not have an attorney, he could significantly affect his rights and obligations for the next 18 years. Obviously, with limited grandparent rights in Texas, his rights and obligations will affect yours. Hopefully that gives you a better perspective. TCL

Re: Retraining Order

I'm an attorney and I've ended two marriages in the Harris County courts. I hired an attorney both times to represent me. It was money well spent.

There is an old saying - only a fool would represent himself in court.

The judge agrees not to practice law when they are elected to the bench. Therefore, your son would be held to the same standard as any attorney. He would have to know the local rules for Harris County family law courts.

I offer a free phone consultation for approx. 10 minutes. I'm not allowed to give you my phone number on www.lawguru.com

Visit my website at www.familylaw4u.com or type in "Fran Brochstein" on any major search engine and I'll pop up.

I need to talk to him personally.

Be sure to have him mention that he found me on www.lawguru.com

Good luck!
