Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Based on what you have written, you should remember that you will get what you pay for. Attorneys and law firms have a variety of pricing arrangements. Generally, you will pay an hourly rate for issues in family law matters. Be cautious with flat fees, as those are generally set on a specific number of hours of work and once those hours are used up, then the work slows until more money is acquired. Which court issued the current order? What are the specific terms of the visitation? Who is to surrender the child and return the child? Where is the surrender and return to happen? These are just some of the questions which need to be answered prior to taking any formal actions. If the child's other parent has deliberately thumbed her nose at the court's order, then you may have grounds to file an enforcement action. Additionally, the court may allow you to collect the attorneys fees expended to enforce the court's order. You should consider consulting with a local law firm to ensure that you are fully protecting your rights and interests.
