Termination

Austin, Texas Parental Termination Attorney

Terminating parental rights is a serious and often difficult matter. The Law Office of J. Tim Whitten, P.C. helps people who are seeking to terminate parental rights and works to prevent the unjust termination of parental rights. I handle cases throughout the communities of Austin, Georgetown, Round Rock, Bastrop, Lockhart, and San Marcos.

In my 14 years as a lawyer, most of which has been as family law attorney, I have been committed to looking out for the interests of children. There are generally two reasons parental rights are terminated. Child Protective Services (CPS) removes a child from the parent's custody due to abuse or neglect. The other common reason parental rights are terminated is when the biological parent essentially abandons the child and a stepparent adoption is pursued.

I have handled numerous adoptions. The process for adopting relative's children is generally straight forward once the biological parent's rights have been terminated.

As an Austin, Texas lawyer, I often help people whose parental rights are subject to being terminated. This commonly arises in the context of a case involving Child Protective Services (CPS). I can help you deal with CPS and attempt to maintain your parental rights and your relationship with your child.
