How Third-Party Possession and Custody Requests Are Handled (Ep. 16)
Gaining custody of a child as a third party may be in the child’s best interest, but that doesn’t mean it will be easy to attain. Even grandparents and close relatives have limitations to gaining custody.
In this episode, Justin Sisemore and Andrea Jones discuss third-party custody requests and the process behind them in Texas. They dive into the who, when, and how of filing for parental responsibility and the limitations of rights as a third-party custody holder.
Justin and Andrea explore:
- How a biological parent risks losing custody
- When can a non-parent file for custody, and why they may need to wait before filing
- The limitations of legal rights for third parties to retain custody of a child
- The limitations of grandparent rights when it comes to grandchild visitation
- And more!
