Texas Divorce Representation

Through our 15 years of experience, we have found that resolving disputes through amicable means usually serves the best interest of the parties involved. The process is easier on the children and usually results in a better post divorce relationship, which is especially necessary when you have children.

When a cordial resolution is desired, clients benefit from our skill with negotiation and mediation. We strive to resolve disputes with as little strain as possible. However, when a workable solution is not possible, we are prepared to proceed into divorce litigation.

We handle a full range of family law issues that arise from divorce:

• Property division: We handle complex marital property division, which includes division of marital assets and debts. In addition, when devising divorce settlement agreements, we revisit prenuptial agreements
• Spousal support/alimony: We help couples present compelling evidence to support the need for or contest the need for spousal support. Temporary orders for support may be established while one parent reenters into the working world
• Child custody and visitation: We help couples negotiate child custody and visitation arrangements which serve the best interests of the children. In addition, we revisit court orders or agreements and facilitate modifications of child custody.
• Child support: We assist clients in establishing child support which appropriately reflects the child custody arrangement. In addition, we handle paternity actions when necessary to establish support and handle child support modifications when future changes arise.
• Abuse: Frequently with divorce petitions, many feelings of animosity arise. With these emotions, accusations may come out regarding spousal abuse or child abuse. We handle temporary orders of protection and other domestic violence matters.

In addition, our firm offers advice and guidance to clients pursuing a 'Do it Yourself Divorce'.

Post Divorce Decree Help

In addition to child custody and support modifications, our firm offers experienced guidance in other post decree matters. We handle contempt and enforcement actions and stepparent adoptions.
