Texas Family Law

The State of Texas has complex statutes that apply to virtually every type of family law matter. Getting help from a knowledgeable family law attorney gives you the best chance at successfully and quickly resolving the family legal issues you face.

Anie Usoro helps clients with all types of family legal issues, regardless of the nature of the matter. Divorce, child custody, and child support are among the most common family law issues that individuals face.

Divorce

Texas laws provide a number of grounds for seeking a divorce in the state, including both no-fault and fault reasons. Making certain that you meet the state residency requirements (six months in the state and 90 days in the county where the divorce is filed, for one of the spouses) and determining the grounds for divorce are the starting points for pursuing a divorce. Anie Usoro guides you through this process, ensuring that you understand all the laws and how they apply to your circumstances.

In a Texas divorce, the court decides more than simply whether to grant the request to terminate the marriage. The proceeding also involves dividing community property and determining the terms for custody and support of children. Alimony and spousal support may also be issues in a divorce. To navigate these complex issues and understand the complicated laws that apply, you need assistance from a knowledgeable and skillful lawyer. If you attempt to represent yourself, you can create significant problems that become difficult to resolve.

Child Support

In Texas, both parents have a legal obligation to support a child. Specific laws and rules apply to calculating child support and determining which parent is obligated to pay support to the other parent. If you have issues concerning determining the support obligation and amount (as part of a divorce or otherwise), enforcing a child support order, or modifying a child support order, Anie Usoro helps you understand the laws and procedure and guides you through the process, providing sound advice and important support until the matter is resolved.

Child Custody

The State of Texas has complicated laws that govern child custody matters, whether those matters are decided during a divorce or in another proceeding. Texas does not use the term custody, but refers to parental legal rights with regard to a child as conservatorship. A parent with legal custody rights is a conservator for the child. Texas also does not use the term visitation for parental rights. Instead, state law uses the term possession and access to describe parental rights concerning each parent’s right to physical custody and to spend time with a child.

In determining child custody matters, Texas courts address both conservatorship and possession and access of both of a child’s parents. The guiding principle for making decisions is what is in the best interest of the child. Making that determination takes into account a very broad range of factors. While it is best if parents can agree on conservatorship and possession and access, the court makes those decisions based on the applicable laws if agreement is not possible.

If you face issues in Texas concerning child conservatorship or possession and access, the complex laws and legal process make it essential to have dependable legal representation. Anie Usoro assists clients with all aspects of conservatorship and possession and access relating to a child. You can count on Anie to provide sound legal counsel and guidance, as well as compassionate support, to help you navigate through the process and make the informed decisions that are best for you and your family.
