Common Misconceptions about Texas Family Law

Dallas Family Law attorney Michelle May O’Neil discussed a few common misconceptions about Texas Family Law in her presentation at the Dallas Kids Expo featuring her book All About Texas Law and Kids.

Misconception #1: Children over age 12 can choose who they want to live with (who their conservator will be after a divorce or modification in Texas). False! (See the video below for the true state of the law.)

Misconception #2: Joint custody means equal time for both parents with the kids. False! (See the video below for the true state of the law.)

Misconception #3: The age when a child can get married. (See the video below for the true state of the law.)
