What is family law?

Family law covers legal issues related divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, and adoption. It focuses on resolving family disputes and protecting the rights of parents, children, and spouses.

Do I need a lawyer to get divorced?

While you can file for divorce in Texas without an attorney, having an experienced family law attorney will help you navigate the legal system, ensure the process is handled correctly, and protect you in matters concerning children, property division, and finances. 

Am I entitled to spousal support?

Spousal support, or alimony, may be awarded based on factors like income disparity, length of the marriage, and each spouse’s financial needs. Contacting an experienced family law attorney can help determine if you qualify and advocate for a fair arrangement.
