Family law is a branch of law that deals with legal issues related to family relationships, such as divorce, child custody, adoption, and spousal support.

What is collaborative law?

Collaborative law is an alternative dispute resolution method where both parties work together with their attorneys to reach a mutually beneficial agreement outside of court. It promotes open communication and cooperation.

What is the process of adoption in Texas?

The adoption process in Texas involves several steps, including completing an application, undergoing a home study, attending adoption education classes, and obtaining consent from the child's biological parents or terminating their parental rights.

Can a family law attorney help with domestic violence cases?

Yes, a family law attorney can provide legal assistance and support for victims of domestic violence. They can help obtain protective orders, file for divorce or separation, and ensure the safety and well-being of the victim and any children involved.

Child Support

Termination of Parental Rights

Our San Antonio family law lawyers can assist in proceedings involving the termination of parental rights in Bexar County and the San Antonio area. While sometimes these situations are voluntary, the process may be more complex if the biological parent cannot be located or objects to the termination.

Terminating a parent’s rights is a big decision that the court does not take lightly, especially if domestic violence is involved. It’s essential that the parent understands the legal ramifications of the proceeding.

  • What is a common-law marriage in Texas?

    Common law marriages are referred to as “informal marriages” in Texas. To be considered an “informal marriage,” you must answer “yes” to the following questions:

    • Is there an agreement to be married?
    • Are you living together in Texas?
    • Have you represented to others that you are married?

    However, there are nuances with even these straightforward questions. For example, what if one party maintained a separate residence during the relationship? Do you introduce each other as a spouse? Consult a San Antonio attorney for specific questions regarding your situation.

  • In Texas, is marital property automatically divided 50/50?
    Texas law does not insist that property must be divided equally. Instead, a judge will divide the community estate into a “just and right” division.
  • Do I need a prenup?

    You don’t have to have considerable wealth to benefit from a pre-nuptial agreement. Instead, a premarital agreement can help a couple keep the property, income, and debts separate. Conversely, it can even make individual property community property. 

    Premarital Agreements are often used by couples that have children from a previous marriage and want to protect assets for their children from an earlier relationship.

    A pre-nuptial agreement is necessary if a couple would not agree with how Texas law would divide the property, income, and debts after the divorce.

  • What does a “temporary order” mean in Texas?

    Texas law does not recognize “legal separations.” Instead, after a divorce is filed, either party may request a “temporary order,” which determines the temporary situation until the divorce is decreed.

    For example, a temporary order can dictate who will remain in the house, pay what bills, and visitation matters for the non-custodial parent. It’s important to understand that a temporary order is not always required. 

    Also, if the parties involved agree to the temporary order, there may not need to be a hearing. However, some situations are so volatile that a judge is asked to impose a temporary order after listening to the evidence presented.
