MOTHERS’ RIGHTS

Protecting Mothers’ Rights in Georgetown, Texas

When it comes to divorce and child custody disputes, many mothers find themselves overwhelmed by the legal system, especially when they’re up against a high-conflict or controlling co-parent. At the Law Office of Carl Knickerbocker, P.C., we provide experienced, strategic, and compassionate legal representation for mothers throughout Georgetown and Williamson County.

We understand what’s at stake: your time with your children, your ability to make decisions about their lives, and your right to raise them in a safe, stable environment. Whether you’re seeking primary custody, child support, enforcement of orders, or simply clarity and peace in a difficult situation, we’re here to stand beside you every step of the way.

Mothers Have Rights in Texas—We Help You Enforce Them

Under Texas law, mothers and fathers are granted equal rights on paper. But in real life, custody and parenting disputes don’t always play out evenly. You may be dealing with an ex who is using the legal system as a weapon, making false accusations, or trying to manipulate you through the children. You may be a stay-at-home mom who’s worried about financial support and maintaining custody after the divorce. Or you may simply need a trusted advocate who will fight for your best interests.

At our Georgetown-based law firm, we help mothers assert their legal rights, including:

• The right to maintain a consistent and loving relationship with your child

• The right to seek primary custody (sole or joint managing conservatorship)

• The right to request and enforce child support

• The right to make decisions about education, health, and religion

• The right to pursue enforcement or protective orders when needed

Child Custody Representation for Georgetown Mothers

If you're involved in a child custody dispute in Georgetown, it's critical to have a lawyer who understands the local courts, judges, and family law procedures in Williamson County. We’ll help you gather the right evidence, prepare your case thoroughly, and present a strong argument in favor of your role as the primary parent.

We regularly represent mothers seeking:

• Sole custody due to concerns over the child’s safety or the other parent’s behavior

• Joint custody arrangements with reasonable and fair parenting schedules

• Supervised visitation when necessary for the child’s well-being

• Custom parenting plans tailored to work schedules, school, and other realities

We also help with modifications to custody orders and enforcement when the other parent violates the court's terms.

Child Support and Financial Stability

Raising children takes emotional energy and financial resources. Whether you're a working mom, a stay-at-home mom, or managing both, we’ll help you ensure your children are supported financially after the divorce.

We represent mothers seeking:

• Initial child support orders in line with Texas guidelines

• Enforcement of unpaid support when the other parent falls behind

• Modifications when financial situations change significantly

We also work with mothers who are being unfairly pressured or underpaid by co-parents who are hiding income or refusing to follow court orders.

For Mothers Dealing With a Narcissistic or Abusive Ex

Some of the most emotionally draining cases we handle involve mothers trying to protect themselves and their children from high-conflict or narcissistic ex-partners. These situations require a different approach: calm strategy, clear documentation, and firm boundaries.

We provide strong legal representation for mothers experiencing:

• Ongoing emotional or financial abuse

• False accusations or manipulation tactics

• Harassment or intimidation during the legal process

• Parenting time violations or interference

We’ll help you create a parenting framework that reduces unnecessary contact and keeps you focused on protecting your children.
