Mothers’ Rights
Put Your Trust in Our Rice Village Family Lawyer
Parenting rights can be a significant concern for divorcing couples – who should be awarded custody? What rights do parents have? In the state of Texas, a child’s mother is automatically recognized as a legal parent. As your child’s mother, however, you have the right to establish paternity on behalf of the child’s father with the assistance of a mothers rights attorney to collect child support.
If your rights are at risk of being violated, you should seek representation from the Law Office of Bryan Fagan, PLLC. Our firm focuses on family law matters, enabling us to provide your case with the personalized attention it deserves. Attorney Bryan Fagan is a member of the Texas Bar College, an achievement attained by fewer than 10% of lawyers in Texas.

What are my custody rights?
It’s important to remember that a divorce does not automatically grant the mother custody rights. Before a custody order is given, a judge will review the case and decide on the best parenting arrangement for the child’s needs and interests. Issues such as abuse, unverified paternity, and high-conflict separations can complicate the validity of mothers’ rights – in such cases, a mother can file for a protective order.
Seeking a protective order can:
- Grant the mother custody
- Restrict the father’s visitation privileges
- Order the father to pay child support for up to one year
- Terminate Parental Rights in Texas for the Absent Parent
- Can I get child support and custody of my kids in Texas if we were never married?
- Mom Versus Dad: Custodial Rights Vs. Non-Custodial Rights in Texas
