Divorce in Texas: Guiding You Toward a New Beginning
At Jean Brown Law Firm, we recognize that going through a divorce can be one of the most stressful experiences in your life. Our goal is to make the process as smooth and clear as possible, advocating strongly for your interests while helping you transition toward a positive future.
Understanding Divorce in Texas
Texas is a “no-fault” divorce state, meaning you can file for divorce without proving fault or wrongdoing by your spouse. The most common reason cited is insupportability, indicating the marriage has become unworkable due to conflict or discord.
Key Issues in Texas Divorce
Our firm is experienced in handling all aspects involved in a divorce, including:
- Property Division: Texas follows community property laws, generally dividing marital property equally. However, the division can be adjusted based on * fairness considerations.
- Child Custody and Visitation: We assist you in developing parenting plans that serve your children’s best interests while protecting your parental rights.
- Child Support: We’ll help establish child support obligations that accurately reflect Texas law and your family’s unique financial circumstances.
Spousal Support (Alimony): Although spousal support isn’t guaranteed in Texas, we can advocate effectively for or against support based on your situation.
The Divorce Process in Texas
The divorce process typically includes:
- Filing and Serving Divorce Papers
- Temporary Orders (if necessary)
- Discovery and Negotiation
- Mediation (often required by Texas courts)
- Trial or Settlement
- Final Divorce Decree
Collaborative Divorce and Mediation
Jean Brown Law Firm strongly encourages amicable solutions through mediation or collaborative divorce methods. These processes can significantly reduce stress, costs, and conflict, especially when children are involved. We skillfully guide you toward settlement agreements that preserve your dignity and priorities. However, when settlement is not possible, we will confidently take your case to trial, fight vigorously for your rights, and strive for the best possible outcome.
