Resolution & Support

We aim for durable agreements that work in the real world. After judgment, we remain available for questions and future modifications.

How long does a divorce take in Texas?

Texas has a mandatory 60-day waiting period from filing. Uncontested matters can resolve shortly after; contested cases take longer due to discovery, hearings, and court schedules.

Will I have to go to court?

Many cases settle through negotiation or mediation. If a fair agreement isn't possible, we are fully prepared to advocate for you in court.

How is child custody decided in Texas?

Texas courts prioritize the best interests of the child, considering safety, stability, parental involvement, and each parent's ability to meet the child's needs.

How is child support calculated in Texas?

Typically based on the paying parent's net income and the number of children, with adjustments for special circumstances. We run the numbers, explain the guidelines, and advocate for a fair result.

Can court orders be modified later?

Yes. If there is a material and substantial change in circumstances — job loss, relocation, a child's evolving needs — you can seek a modification through the court.

What if the other party won't follow the court order?

We pursue enforcement, which can include contempt of court, attorney's fees, make-up time, and other remedies under Texas law.

Do I need to move out during a divorce?

Not always — and the decision affects both finances and parenting arrangements. Contact us before making any major moves.

Do you offer virtual case evaluations?

Yes — phone and video case evaluations are available for your convenience and privacy.
