Waco, TX asked in Child Custody for Texas

Q: I have a final court order in place for child. The opposite party is now asking for jury trial because they lost.

Already did temp orders and now have a final order. The opposite party now wants a jury trial because they never pay out of pocket for attorney. There attorney stated he is pro bono in open court.I spent everything I had for attorney to get final court order naming me primary custodian. If he is probono how is this fair or is there a law to protect me
