Termination of parental rights
On occasion, it is necessary to terminate a parent's legal relationship with their child. Often, termination of parental rights occurs when a stepparent officially adopts a child. Such terminations are typically voluntary on the part of the parent whose rights are being terminated. But no matter what the circumstances, the Houston family lawyers of Nichols Law can help.
Over many years of practice, Nichols Law, P.L.L.C., has gained a nationwide reputation for attentive, compassionate service of clients, along with aggressive courtroom advocacy. We can help you find the most effective way to bring about any termination of parental rights you are seeking.
The law in Texas makes any termination of parental rights final and irrevocable. Only the child's right to inherit from the parent remains. The child must be five years old for anything besides a temporary order to be imposed.
