    Family Law Orders Change Parents Rights; Termination Ends Them: Episode 85

    Send us Fan Mail Can a parent simply give up their parental rights in Texas? What does it actually take to terminate a parent’s rights? In this episode of The Consultation: A Family Law Podcast, Board Certified Family Law Attorneys Christina Jimenez and Joshua Floyd discuss termination of parental rights in Texas and the serious legal consequences involved. Termination of parental rights is one of the most significant outcomes in a Texas family law case. Under Texas Family Code §161.001, a court must find a statutory ground for termination and determine that termination is in the child’s best interest. The statutory grounds must generally be proven by clear and convincing evidence. In this episode, we discuss: • What termination of parental rights means in Texas • The legal standard of clear and convincing evidence • Texas Family Code §161.001 • Abandonment as a ground for termination • Failure to provide support • Child endangerment and dangerous living conditions • Domestic violence and its potential impact on parental rights • Drug and alcohol abuse • Criminal conduct and incarceration • What happens when a parent does not visit their child • Why failing to pay child support does not automatically mean parental rights can be terminated • Why a parent cannot simply say, “I want to give up my rights” • The importance of documenting efforts to maintain contact with a child • How CPS involvement can intersect with termination cases • Why the child’s best interest is an essential part of a termination case The attorneys also discuss examples from Texas family law cases, including cases involving Midland County, Denton County, Dallas County, Tarrant County, and Ector County. If you are dealing with a Texas child custody case, parental rights dispute, CPS case, abandonment issue, or potential termination of parental rights, understanding the law and the specific facts of your situation is critical.

    Dating During Divorce: What You Need to Know Before You Swipe. The Consultation: Episode 79

    Send us Fan Mail In this can’t-miss episode of The Consultation, Board Certified family law attorneys Christina Jimenez and Josh Floyd tackle a question that can make or break a divorce case: Are you really single if you’re still legally married?

They discuss how dating can:     •    Trigger unnecessary conflict and prolong litigation     •    Damage your credibility in front of a judge     •    Impact custody and conservatorship determinations     •    Complicate property division and spousal support     •    Be weaponized through texts, photos, and social media     •    Shift negotiation power at the worst possible time This episode isn’t about judging your personal life — it’s about protecting your legal strategy. The emotional decision to “move on” can have very real financial and parental consequences. If you’re separated but your divorce isn’t final, listen before you swipe, post, introduce the kids, or book that vacation.
