  • Consenting to the child enlisting in the armed forces or entering into marriage
  • Deciding on medical care, psychological care and education
  • Choosing where the child lives

It is important to realize that in the case of a joint managing conservatorship, rights are not necessarily equally split and the court may configure conservatorship based on how it sees fit. We can help with issues such as:
