Know Your Options

When dealing with child custody cases, keep in mind that there several custody options available. Rashelle Fetty will thoroughly explain each option and help you on your way towards a comprehensive settlement. There are four different types of custody options. Below you’ll find a little bit about each option.

Joint Custody – Joint custody is the preferred option by many of the courts in Texas. This option refers to the scenario where both parents are awarded custody. Furthermore, joint custody breaks down into three types: joint legal custody, shared physical custody, and a combination of joint legal and physical custody.
Sole Custody – Sole custody refers to the situation where a parent is awarded both legal and physical custody. As such, this parent makes decisions regarding the upbringing, education, health care, and other important matters. Additionally, the child will live full time with the parent holding sole custody.
Temporary Custody – Temporary custody is awarded by the court based around the child’s best interest. This term refers to where the child resides at the start of the process. Keep in mind that temporary custody is a short-term arrangement.
Split Custody – Scenarios involving two or more children can have split custody as a possible settlement. In these types of cases, neither parent has full custody of all the children. A split custody arrangement can take into account numerous factors.

Two words: choose Fetty
Some lawyers don’t care about you if your case won’t bring in the big bucks. Some lawyers try to turn your case into a bigger case than is necessary for a bigger profit.
But The Fetty Firm is a no nonsense straight forward efficient company that handles your best interest effectively. Her and her team will also scream YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH in court when necessary – choose Fetty and thank me later.

Teressa Lynn

I live in Illinois, but my ex husband lives in Texas. I contacted Rashelle Fetty afraid that I wouldn’t be able to find a “Good” Attorney before my hearing. Not only did I find an “Amazing” Attorney, but Ms Fetty handle my case with such care and professionalism. With my being in a totally different state Ms. Fetty kept my abreast of every motion filed, every discovery made, and my divorce was dissolved amicably. Now that my case is done, I’m truly going to miss not only Ms Fetty but also her assistant Lindsey Terrell. Thank you both for making an undesirable experience less painful.
