Texas child custody package with conservatorship forms, standard possession order templates, and modification petitions. Texas uses "conservatorship" for custody and "possession and access" for visitation. Joint Managing Conservatorship is the statutory presumption.
Conservatorship is Texas's term for custody. Joint Managing Conservatorship (JMC) is the presumption — both parents share decision-making rights. Sole Managing Conservatorship is granted when JMC would not be in the child's best interest.
The Standard Possession Order (SPO) under Tex. Fam. Code § 153.312 is the default time-sharing schedule: 1st, 3rd, and 5th weekends, Thursday evenings, alternating holidays, and extended summer possession (30 days).
Many Texas courts order mediation before trial in custody cases. Some counties require it. Mediation is strongly encouraged for developing conservatorship and possession agreements.
