Child custody

Asked on Jul 11th, 2019 on Child Custody - Texas
More details to this question:
I have primary custody in a joint conservatorship with my 4 year old. With her dad I never asked child support. On paper we have the classic visitation 1st, 3rd, 5th weekends for him etc. I always allowed a very lax visitation schedule as my 4 year old didn't go to school, daycare, etc and if he wanted to spend time with her outside of visitation I was ok with that. Now she is going to start school and she needs twice weekly home therapy for speech. I told him she needs a more strict schedule and home, so she needs to stay with me more along the lines of the visitation that the order outlines, but I'd be ok with only using it as a guideline and if he wanted to see her more, as long as it didn't interfere with her therapy and school days, I'd be ok with that. He isn't happy and now is getting a lawyer to try to fight for primary. What do I do?

i The court will look at the facts about where your daughter has spent her time. If Dad offers proof that she has spent more time with him, he will use that to support his custody argument. I’m sure Dad considers that his child’s home is with him as well as with you. I strongly suggest you consult and hire an attorney if you do not want to lose primary.
