Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

In Texas, there is a legal presumption that both parents will be entitled to joint legal custody (“conservatorship”) of their children with visitation rights (“possession and access”) unless evidence shows that the presumption is not in “best interest of the child.” For now, let’s focus on what that standard means under Texas Family Law.
The “best interest of the child” standard is based on a Texas statute, which prioritizes the child’s needs and parents’ abilities to meet them, rather than relying on outdated stereotypes such as those that favored mothers over fathers as primary caregivers. Just a few of the many factors that Texas courts consider include:
The best interest of the child can change over time due to both the circumstances of the parents and the changing needs of growing children. However, once a custody order is in place, it can be difficult to modify. The child custody lawyers of Scroggins Law Group are here to advocate for you and your child through whatever circumstances or challenges that stand to impact the judge’s final order.

“Mark and his entire team were great! Mark made a very stressful situation very easy to deal with. He is very professional and is very great at what he does. I would say he is on “different level” then other lawyers without a doubt. It’s nice to know I can step back and let him do his job and not worry about a thing especially with 3 little kids involved. He is the best in Dallas in my opinion. Thank you Mark and MeeRa!”
“Excellent experience with Scroggins Law Group. They were compassionate and really listened to their clients. When requiring an attorney this level of understanding and empathy is of immense value. I would highly recommend working with them. They are a firm of integrity and honesty.”
