    Clear, enforceable agreements that prevent future disputes.

Texas Family Law Basics

  • Community Property: Most assets/debts gained during marriage are community and divided in a “just and right” manner—not always 50/50. Separate property includes pre-marital assets, gifts, inheritances, and certain PI recoveries.
  • Best Interest of the Child: Custody (conservatorship) and possession schedules are determined by what serves the child’s best interest.
  • Spousal Maintenance: Limited and need-based; strict eligibility (10+ year marriage, disability, family violence, or caring for a disabled child).
  • Timing: Texas has a 60-day waiting period for divorces; actual timelines depend on complexity and conflict level.

Our Approach

  • Determined Representation: We negotiate from strength and prepare every case as if it will be tried.
  • Client-Focused Strategy: Your goals set the roadmap; we adjust as life changes.
  • Clear Communication: No jargon. Straight answers and proactive updates.
  • Local Insight: Dallas–Fort Worth courts, procedures, and expectations—known and navigated daily.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much will a divorce cost?
Costs vary with complexity and conflict. We outline likely paths and fees after learning the facts.
Not always. Most cases resolve through negotiation or mediation. Court remains your leverage and our backup plan.

Yes—when there’s a material and substantial change (income, relocation, child’s needs/preferences at 12+).

It depends on equity, separate claims, and overall division. We value assets and negotiate trades or buy-outs.
