Custody and Visitation

Greater San Antonio Area

Custody and Visitation Lawyer

Knowledgeable in Texas Child Custody Laws

The Law Office of Crystal Bannin helps divorcing couples and unmarried parents negotiate workable child custody and visitation agreements, with emphasis on the interests of the child.

San Antonio family law attorney Crystal Bannin believes that children truly are best served when both parents remain involved in their lives. While "equal" custody is not always feasible -- or in the child's best interests. Ms. Bannin strives for arrangements in which child custody and care are shared.

The Law Office of Crystal Bannin provides divorce, family law and estate planning services to clients in San Antonio, Universal City, New Braunfels, Converse, Live Oak, Schertz and surrounding counties. Attorney Crystal Bannin has been in practice since 2000, and stays current with her knowledge of Texas child custody laws.

Putting children first
Ms. Bannin tries to bring both parents together to minimize the post-divorce or post-separation trauma on children. For the custodial parent, she emphasizes the emotional well-being of the child, and helps clients resist the urge to alienate the other parent. For the non-custodial parent, she focuses on paying the court-ordered support and staying involved in the child's life by adhering to the custody or visitation plan.

The Law Office of Crystal Bannin believes both parents should have access and time alone with their children, and that both parents should be able to attend school functions, student conferences and other events in the child's life.

Serving the client
While focusing on the children, she always works to protect the interests of her client.  She will aggressively pursue enforcement of child support, or modifications to previous agreements if the other parent is not fulfilling their responsibilities.

As a qualified and experienced family law attorney, Ms. Bannin also handles:

• Step-parent adoptions (including termination of parental rights)
• Paternity (establishing parental rights or defending against paternity claims)
• Child support modifications
• Sole custody petitions
