Texas Family Law Insiders

Grandparents have extremely limited rights in Texas, and it’s important for attorneys to understand exactly when grandparents can obtain access and when they cannot. 

In this solo episode, I delve into the topic of grandparent access cases.

These cases deal with some of the same constitutional implications as CJC but have their own distinct statutes.

I’ll cover:
  • Why most grandparents do not have standing to file for grandparent access
  • Relevant Texas Family Law Code Provisions
  • The meaning of significant impairment
  • Implications of seeking access vs seeking conservatorship
  • A red flag that you’ll be able to get a case dismissed
  • And more
