Divorce and Annulment Attorney

Divorce can sometimes be a mutual decision with little dispute. The more common scenario is not like that. Divorce can be a painful, difficult and sometimes hostile process, even more so if there are children involved.

Divorce and Annulment in Texas

Since Texas is a community property state, anything that was accumulated during the marriage may likely be subject to distribution between the couple. Community property assets that are commonly divided include:
  • Marital Residence
  • Investment property or Vacation Homes
  • Household Appliances
  • Furniture
  • Jewelry
  • Cars
  • Boats, RV’s or other recreational vehicles
  • Art
  • Rugs
  • Stocks, Bonds, or other Investments

Our team of family law lawyers will help you deal with the following issues:

  • Child support, custody, and visitation
  • Alimony or spousal support
  • Marital property division
We understand that when it comes to the care and welfare of your child, nothing else is as important, so it is imperative that you choose an aggressive family law attorney who will look out for your child’s best interest. In making recommendations, we will take into account the best interests of your child, taking into consideration all the rights and responsibilities that go along with raising your child.
It doesn’t stop there. You may not be aware of all the rights to which you may be entitled. For example, if you have been married for ten (10) or more years, the spouse who earns less may be entitled to spousal support, commonly known as alimony, if he/she has a lower earning capacity and few or little assets.
We are also aware that the legal costs associated with a contested divorce can be exorbitant. For this reason, we not only encourage mediation, but it is required in most cases. Mediation is simply a means by which the parties can reach an agreement, especially when there is a child involved to handle issues regarding child custody, child support and other matters amicably. This not only encourages you and your soon to be ex spouse to work together to resolve your differences, but also sets a positive and encouraging example for your children.
