I am committed to helping you face your family-related legal matters head on with honest, straightforward advice and experienced legal representation. In life nothing is more important than family. As such, who you choose to represent you in your family law case is an important decision which should be made with care.

Modifications
Texas law allows for the modification of orders providing for custody, visitation, child support payments, and other issues related to the rights and duties of divorcing parents or other parties having rights to children.

If you find yourself in a situation where the orders related to your custody, visitation, or child support arrangements are no longer in the best interest of your child, I can help you analyze the options available for modifying your Decree of Divorce or other order affecting your child.

Parentage
Fathering a child does not automatically establish legal rights to a child, nor does it automatically establish legally enforceable support for the child. I assist biological fathers in establishing legal rights to their children including the right to visit with their child and fully participate in their child’s life. We also assist mothers in confirming the father of their child and securing child support including provisions for medical insurance and payment of medical expenses for their son or daughter.

Divorce
Before filing for a divorce, you and your partner should be absolutely certain that your marriage is beyond repair. Initiating a divorce suit in Texas can become complicated, stressful, and expensive. Divorce is a highly emotionally charged matter which often requires immediate attention. If you are considering filing for divorce or are already immersed in the proceedings, you need the advice of a confident and experienced attorney who can provide you with a realistic assessment of your case. I am dedicated to realistically assessing your situation and determining the best course of action to take in order to resolve your divorce matter as efficiently and effectively as possible. While a vast majority of divorce actions settle, some must be tried to a conclusion.

Regardless of the issues in your divorce, your first step is to sit down with the attorney of your choosing to discuss your situation. I can help you understand the legal process, determine your goals for the outcome of the divorce and design a strategy that can help achieve this outcome.

I am committed to helping you manage and preserve your family’s assets, rather than wasting those assets on unnecessary or excessive legal fees. During your representation, we will perform an on-going cost/benefit analysis, keeping you apprised of the costs of litigation. This enables you to continually maximize your resources and make informed decisions as to how you want to proceed with your suit.
