Deciding to separate is a challenging situation. It’s tough if you and your spouse have young children. Thus, it is essential to be prepared and know what to expect during this process. Our attorneys can help you understand the differences between sole and joint custody and help you negotiate a child support package that works for both of you. We will also work with your spouse’s attorney to ensure you are on the same page throughout the negotiation process.
Divorce may be suitable for some couples but not others, such as those who want to stay married under separate roofs rather than seek an official dissolution of their marriage or domestic partnership. Whether or not divorce makes sense, we can provide legal guidance related to property division, spousal maintenance (alimony), and child support—all issues you must resolve before you can approve your negotiated agreement.
If you are getting ready to marry, it is vital for you and your intended spouse to talk about the property division should the marriage end. A prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can help resolve issues ahead of time so that no surprises later. We can provide you with legal guidance related to signing a legally binding contract with another person, which will affect all aspects of your life together if something goes wrong in the future.
If separation makes sense for your situation, we can represent one or both parties during this process. Our attorneys can negotiate an agreement that protects all interests while ensuring children do not become pawns in their parents’ disputes over child custody and visitation.
During a family law dispute, it is essential to have an experienced attorney on your side. Contact our firm today to schedule a consultation with one of our Houston family law attorneys. We can help you get the resolution you need and deserve by providing these services:
Divorce Law
If you are considering filing for divorce, our attorneys can help. We will work with you to understand your situation and develop a strategy that meets your needs. We will guide you through the process every step of the way and protect your rights.
Child Custody
If you are divorcing and have children, one of the most important decisions you will make is to have custody of your children. Our attorneys can help you negotiate a custody agreement in the best interests of your children. We will advocate for your rights and ensure that the deal meets all state and federal requirements.
Child Support
When parents’ divorce, they are typically required to pay child support to help cover raising their children. The child support they must pay depends on their state, income level, and other factors. Our attorneys can help you understand your financial and legal obligation to your children and make sure you can meet it.
Alimony
Alimony (also referred to as spousal support or maintenance) is money that one spouse pays to the other for financial support during or after a divorce. Depending on many factors, including each spouse’s financial needs, and earning potential, alimony can be ordered by the court either temporarily (during the divorce proceedings) or permanently. Our firm will help you negotiate an alimony agreement within the parameters set out by Texas law so that you are protected financially if your marriage ends.
Division of Properties
When parents get divorced, they often divide up their marital property. Dividing property includes assets such as the family home, cars, bank accounts, and other property. Our attorneys can help you negotiate a fair division of your marital property that meets both your needs and the requirements of Texas law.
Prenuptial Agreements
If you are getting married, you may want to consider signing a prenuptial agreement. This contract between you and your future spouse outlines how you will handle your finances if you get divorced. Our attorneys can help you draft a prenuptial agreement that meets all state and federal requirements.
Postnuptial Agreements
If you are already married but want to protect yourself financially in case of a divorce, you may want to consider signing a postnuptial agreement. A postnuptial deal is like a prenuptial agreement, but you sign it after marriage. Our attorneys can help you draft a postnuptial agreement that meets all state and federal requirements.
Separation Agreements
If you and your spouse decide to split up but do not want to get divorced, you may want to sign a separation agreement. This contract between you and your spouse outlines how you will handle your finances and parenting responsibilities until you are ready to divorce. Our attorneys can help you negotiate a separation agreement that meets all state and federal requirements.
If you are facing a family law dispute, contact us today for a free consultation. We will work with you to develop a plan that meets your needs and helps you resolve them as quickly as possible.
