I am looking for a Texas family law attorney (or very experienced Texas family law paralegal working under attorney supervision) to review a draft Agreed Temporary Order modifying possession in an existing SAPCR case in Travis County, Texas.

Background:

This case already has a Final Order in place (signed February 2025). Due to temporary financial instability, the children’s mother and I have mutually agreed that the children will temporarily reside primarily with me while she stabilizes her situation. We are both in agreement and want to formalize this through a Temporary Order for the court to sign.

What has already been done:

  • I have the existing Final Order.
  • I drafted a Temporary Order modifying the following:
  • temporary primary residence with Father
  • modified possession schedule
  • holiday schedule integrated with the Final Order
  • temporary suspension of Father’s child support obligation
  • temporary pause on interest accrual for arrears
  • The order incorporates the Final Order so all other provisions remain in effect.

What I need:

I need a Texas family law professional to review the draft Temporary Order and confirm that it is:

  • consistent with Texas Family Code
  • likely to be accepted by a Travis County district judge
  • properly structured for enforceability
  • not creating unintended legal conflicts with the Final Order
  • using correct language for child support suspension and arrears interest

Deliverables:

  • Redlined edits or comments on the draft
  • Suggested language corrections if needed
  • Any structural improvements you recommend before filing

Scope:

This is strictly a document review / limited scope engagement. I am not seeking full representation.

Documents I will provide:

  • Final Order (SAPCR)
  • Draft Temporary Order

Ideal candidate:

  • Texas family law attorney OR
  • experienced Texas family law paralegal familiar with SAPCR orders and Travis County practice

Estimated time: 30–60 minutes for someone experienced with Texas custody orders.

Goal:

Ensure the order is clean, enforceable, and likely to be signed by the court without revision.

Thank you!
