Texas Divorce Cases
No one plans for their marriage to end in divorce. Whether agreed to or contested, a divorce is difficult and can take a toll both emotionally and financially. From navigating division of property and other assets, to negotiating child custody (called conservatorship in Texas), child support, and the many other facets of legally ending a marriage, the process can be overwhelming. At McClain Legal Services, we take a compassionate approach to helping our clients successfully navigate the often stressful process of divorce.
In Texas, the law states that neither spouse needs to be “at fault” in order to file for a divorce. However, it’s important to know that the state will consider any “faults” presented in the divorce petition when deciding other matters related to the divorce. This includes property division, child custody, child support, spousal support, etc.
There are two residency requirements to consider when filing for a divorce in Texas. Before filing for divorce, one spouse must be a resident of Texas for at least 6 months. Also, the spouse must reside in that specific county in Texas for at least 90 days.
Child Custody in Texas
A divorce can easily turn complex when you have children. This can add to the stress and complexity of your divorce case. Child custody disputes can be complicated, and your rights as a parent may be at risk. It’s wise to discuss your rights and options with a family law attorney in Houston experienced in child custody cases. McClain Legal can advise and help you make the best choices for your particular situation.
It is important to focus on what is best for you and your children and work to move on from the past. Fortunately, having an attorney on your side can help you make sound decisions and work towards the best possible resolution.
