Your Child’s Residence

Where will your child live after the divorce?

During your marriage you both had a voice in determining where you and your child would live. One of the changes that accompanies every divorce in Montgomery County is that only one parent will have the exclusive right to determine the primary residence of your child after your divorce is final. This has the potential to be very disruptive to maintaining a relationship with your child and is something you should discuss with your Woodlands Divorce Lawyer.

What If You Are Joint Managing Conservators?

The rule is the same. When the divorce court appoints joint managing conservators, the court must designate the conservator who has the exclusive right to determine the primary residence of the child and must either establish a geographic area within which the conservator shall maintain the child’s primary residence or specify that there are no geographic restrictions.
