On Nov. 19, Texas Lawyer hosted “Best Practices as Seen From the Bench: Family Law.” Panelists included Dallas County Judges Dennise Garcia, Tena Callahan and Mary Brown. This is Part II of that discussion. Part I ran in our Dec. 22 issue. The following has been edited for clarity, length and style.
