To be eligible for a Texas divorce, you must live in the state for six months and in the county where you file for 90 days before filing.
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.
