Houston Family Law AttorneysHelping you protect your family, your future, and what matters most.

Q: How is child custody decided in Texas?

Texas courts decide custody, called conservatorship, based on the best interest of the child. Courts consider each parent's ability to care for the child, the child's relationship with each parent, and any history of family violence or substance abuse.

Q: Do I need an attorney if my divorce is uncontested?

It is not legally required, but an uncontested divorce still involves legal documents that permanently affect property rights, custody arrangements, and future obligations. Having an attorney review the agreement helps ensure it is fair and enforceable.

Q: Can custody or support orders be changed after they are finalized?

Yes, in many cases. A significant change in circumstances, such as a change in income, relocation, or a shift in the child's needs, can be grounds to request a modification of an existing order.

How is child custody decided in Texas?

Texas courts decide custody, called “conservatorship,” based on the best interest of the child. Courts consider factors like each parent’s ability to care for the child, the child’s relationship with each parent, and any history of family violence or substance abuse. Courts generally favor both parents remaining involved unless there’s a reason that wouldn’t serve the child’s best interest.

How is property divided in a Texas divorce?

Texas is a community property state, meaning most property acquired during the marriage is considered jointly owned and subject to a “just and right” division — which doesn’t always mean an equal 50/50 split. Separate property, such as assets owned before the marriage or received as a gift or inheritance, generally remains with the original owner.

How is child support calculated?

Texas uses statutory guidelines based primarily on the paying parent’s income and the number of children involved. Courts can deviate from these guidelines in certain circumstances, such as a child’s special needs or a significant income disparity between parents.

Do I need an attorney if my divorce is uncontested?

It’s not legally required, but even an uncontested divorce involves legal documents that permanently affect property rights, custody arrangements, and future obligations. Having an attorney review the agreement helps ensure it’s fair, complete, and enforceable before you sign.

Can custody or support orders be changed after they're finalized?

Yes, in many cases. A significant change in circumstances — such as a change in income, relocation, or a shift in the child’s needs — can be grounds to request a modification of an existing custody or support order.
