Frequently Asked Questions

Texas law provides a number of grounds for seeking a divorce, including both no-fault and fault reasons.

While there is no legal requirement for representation by an attorney, a divorce involves multiple critical issues that affect your future and security. Talking with a knowledgeable family law attorney before you proceed can help you make certain your rights and interests are protected.

Texas has complicated laws that apply to child custody, whether the issues are decided in a divorce or separate proceeding. The state refers to parental legal rights with regard to a child as “conservatorship,” rather than custody. State law also uses the phrase “possession and access” to describe parental rights concerning physical custody and visitation. Legal representation is crucial in any matter involving custody or visitation of children.

Both parents have a legal obligation to support a child, regardless of custody. Which parent is obligated to pay depends on the application of complex legal rules.

Texas law provides compensation when a person suffers injury due to the fault of someone else, when specific requirements are met. If you think you may have a personal injury claim, you should talk to a knowledgeable personal injury lawyer. Attempting to make a claim yourself could undermine your ability to get compensation.

Injuries that give rise to a personal injury claim may occur in a variety of situations. The most common cause is auto accidents. In addition, a slip and fall or trip and fall on another person’s premises may entitle the injured victim to recover on a premises liability claim. Finally, medical malpractice can be the basis for a personal injury claim in the state. Other circumstances may create a personal injury claim as well.
