Dependable Legal Advice for Families
Child Support Enforcement – Visitation Agreements

Gone are the days when custody of children was almost automatically awarded to the mother in the divorce process. Today, according to child custody law, joint custody is presumed to be in the children’s best interest.

At Robertson & Railsback, our lawyers believe a tug-of-war over child custody is counter productive, expensive, and damaging to the children involved. Both parents have a right to participate in the lives of their children, to participate in co-parenting them, and to be active role models.

We are experienced in negotiating and enforcing fair arrangements for child custody and child support payments. We also recognize that as circumstances change, custody, visitation, and support arrangements need to change. If you have had a substantial change of circumstances since your divorce decree or child custody order was finalized, such as the loss of a job, remarriage, or mandatory relocation, we can help with child custody, child support, and visitation arrangements.

We not only represent clients in custody and support disputes between parents, but also between a parent and child protective services, and between a relative and a parent.

Unlike many law firms, we are experienced in working with mental health professionals in child custody matters. Social workers, psychologists, or psychiatrists may be called in to evaluate a child or parent. If a client needs assistance with parenting skills, we will help them become good parents by referring them to professional resources, counselors, and parenting advisors. We will not allow a child to remain with a person who is unable to care for him or her. Few law firms go to such lengths to ensure the best interests of children and families.

Robertson & Railsback represents the oldest licensed child placement agency in Dallas. When a child is at risk, we know what to do to legally terminate parental rights and place the child in a safe foster or adoptive family.

No matter what your legal concern in the matter of child custody or support, we can help. Contact Robertson & Railsback today.
