Questions
Can I get an uncontested divorce if we have children?
Yes, but Texas requires proper documentation including child support agreements and custody arrangements even in uncontested cases.
How is child custody determined in Texas?
Texas uses 'managing conservatorship' standards focusing on the child's best interests, considering factors like parental stability and child preferences for ages 12+.
Can I move out of state with my children after divorce?
Texas courts typically require remaining within Dallas County or adjacent counties unless both parents agree to relocation.
What factors influence divorce costs?
Case complexity, property division disputes, and custody battles significantly affect costs, ranging from $1,500 for simple cases to $80,000+ for complex litigation.
Why is a retainer required for legal services?
Retainers ensure dedicated case preparation, covering initial filings, evidence gathering, and exclusive attorney availability during your case.
