Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

It's a shame that you are going through this. How sad for the child.

Courts like parents to cooperate and work together. It sounds like the two of you are unable to do so.

You can ask the court to give you a make-up visit. You will need to hire a private attorney to help you with this. Unfortunately, it will cost money and I don't know how long it will take you to get in front of a judge during this holiday season.

You might consider mediation. You need to read your decree and see if you are ordered to use mediation before you go back to court.

I hope this info helps. Look on this website & on www.avvo.com for an attorney to help you.

If you need a mediator there are several websites for TX mediators - mediate.com, mediation.com, Texas Association of Mediators, Texas Texas Mediator Credentialing Association are just a few.

I am located in Houston is that is convenient. I cannot force your x to attend mediation. Only a judge can order a party to mediation. Otherwise, mediation is voluntary.

Good luck! Happy Holidays.
