Office of the Attorney General of Texas – Child Support Division

The Child Support Division in the Office of the Attorney General assists parents in obtaining the financial support necessary for children to grow up and succeed in life. To encourage parental responsibility, the Office of the Attorney General establishes paternity of children, establishes court orders for financial and medical support, and enforces support orders. The Attorney General promotes the involvement of both parents in the life of the child by working with community groups, schools, and hospitals. In the performance of their duties on behalf of Texas children, Child Support staffs focus on efficiency, effectiveness, and customer service.
