Austin Family Attorney - Adoption Lawyer - Texas Parental Rights

At the Law Offices of Jo Ann Torrez, we handle many cases that specifically regard parent (or someone filling a parental role) / child relationships. In instances where a non-biological parent is a caretaker of a child, sometimes lawsuits affecting the parent-child relationship can be brought.  Some of the types of lawsuits include:

• Grandparent rights in Texas & grandparents access
• Non-parents, such as siblings, step-parents, aunts, uncles, godparents, or cousins, who have had the child living with them for 6 months or more
• Juvenile delinquency
• Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (Child Protective Services) cases
• Adopting a child
• Same-sex adoption where one of the partners is not biologically related to the child
• GLBT adoption
• Paternity
• And many others

This is a newer and very emotionally charged area of the law. Even though the child is not biologically yours, if you have been acting in a parental capacity in the child’s life, then you may have legal rights to the child.

Our staff is familiar with the issues sometimes related to cases such as these. We are attentive and sensitive to your needs, and are dedicated to pursuing your case to the fullest extent of the law.
 
One benefit of our location is that we have an individual in the building who can perform DNA tests to establish paternity. This makes it very convenient for you to have DNA testing done. The Law Offices of Jo Ann Torrez can minimize the leg work so you can have your case resolved quickly and effectively, without too much hassle. No one likes to run around town to different offices to try and resolve their case.

Contact our offices to discuss your case with principal attorney Jo Ann Torrez. She can provide a consultation at a low cost to you so the details and possibilities of your case may be determined.  You have rights – exercise them with the Law Offices of Jo Ann Torrez today!

We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and debit cards.
