Houston is America's fourth-largest city and one of its most diverse, and its Arab community is among the largest and oldest in the American South: physicians and engineers who came with the oil boom and the medical center, merchants and families rooted over decades, and newer arrivals starting over. The community stretches across an enormous area — from southwest Houston and the Hillcroft corridor to Sugar Land, Katy, and The Woodlands — and with that sprawl come real practical challenges in family cases: long drives, packed work schedules, and two parents who may live an hour apart.
Our service in greater Houston
We serve families in Houston, Harris County, and the neighboring counties — Fort Bend, Montgomery, and others. We coordinate visits in neutral, air-conditioned community settings — Houston summers show no mercy — where the child is comfortable and both parties can arrive easily. The supervisor attends the full session and documents it as it happens, and a written report in English follows within twenty-four hours, in the factual format Texas family courts and law firms work with.
Custody and visitation cases for Houston residents are heard by the family courts of Harris County, or of the county you live in. A hearing interpreter is a free right you request in advance — and Arabic is among the languages available in the region's courts. Read our guide to your language rights before your first hearing.

Start your caseWhat sets us apart in Houston
- Coverage that respects the city's distances: we place the visit location fairly between the two parties' addresses, so no one carries the whole burden of the road.
- Flexibility for a city that works hard: evening and weekend visits wherever possible, within the court order's terms.
- An understanding of Arab diversity: an Egyptian family, an Iraqi family, a Gulf family — each has its own customs, and our supervisors meet every household as it is, without templates.
- Fixed, published pricing: a one-time $150 case setup fee, and $65 per hour with a two-hour minimum — details here.
Questions from Houston families
My court order mentions a "Standard Possession Order" — is that your department?
That is the Texas term for the standard visitation schedule. Our department is whatever your order says about supervision of visits or exchanges: if supervision language appears, we carry it out exactly as written. Send the order when you register and our coordinator will walk you through it clause by clause — in Arabic if you prefer.
Do you serve residents of Sugar Land and Katy?
Yes. Our coverage includes greater Houston and its suburbs. Enter your address when you register and we will confirm the exact arrangements during the intake call.
How long does it take to begin?
Most cases are activated within 48 to 72 hours of completed registration, with the first visit scheduled immediately afterward around both parties' availability.
