Resolving Family Law Disputes in Texas

The broad category of family law may cover a wide range of legal cases. When addressing issues that may affect families, the laws in Texas legislation can contain unique and potentially confusing terminology. Skilled representation from a family law attorney can help you understand your options as you address a variety of issues, including:

• Divorce: Ending your marriage will often involve significant financial issues and emotional concerns. Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, you will want to make sure you take the right steps to resolve the issues in your case and maintain stability after your marriage ends. Our lawyers will be in your corner, ready to guide you through tough decisions while fighting for your best interests.
• Property Division: Disputes over financial assets and other property can arise in a divorce, and they frequently become huge points of contention. Our attorneys will help you negotiate agreements that will fairly allocate assets and debts between you and your spouse. It is important to note that Texas is a community property state, meaning you and your spouse may have joint ownership of nearly everything you acquired during your marriage.
• Child Custody and Child Support: Whether parents are married or unmarried when they separate, they will need to address issues related to legal custody and visitation rights. These issues are decided with children's best interests in mind. Financial support is also a major component in nearly every divorce or child custody case. Though Texas has a standard formula for calculating child support obligations, additional factors may need to be considered in cases involving children with special needs.
• Alimony: Court-ordered financial support is not guaranteed to one partner in the event of a divorce or separation. If spousal support is awarded, the amount and duration ordered by the court will be specific to a couple's unique financial circumstances. Whether you are requesting alimony or are being asked to provide spousal maintenance, our attorneys will work with you to put arrangements in place that will meet your needs.
• Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements: You and your spouse may choose to establish an agreement that will detail ownership rights regarding certain assets, make decisions about the division of property during a divorce, or address other financial concerns. We can help you draft and review these types of agreements and ensure that your rights will be protected.
• Modification and Enforcement: Family law court orders must be followed by all parties involved in a case. We can help you enforce the court's orders when necessary, or we can help you request modifications when your family's circumstances have changed.
• Adoptions and Paternity: If you are unmarried, you may not be able to address issues related to child custody or child support until legal paternity is established. Our lawyers can help you take steps to establish or dispute paternity, and we also work with families to complete the process of adopting a child. Even in the most complex cases, our lawyers will be with you every step of the way.
