Protect Those Who Matter Most

Knowledgeable Representation on Child Support and Custody Challenges

Our firm can assist you through every step of the divorce process and help you handle parental concerns such as:

Child support — The calculation for child support payments in Texas usually relies on a percentage of the noncustodial parent’s net income. Under state law, payments for a child’s health insurance can be deducted. We will work with you to pursue a fair order whether you will be paying support or receiving it. Our advocates also take on modification and enforcement actions.


Child custody and visitation — Conservatorship, or legal authority over a child, is often awarded jointly to both parents. If there is some reason why it might not be safe for the other parent to share this duty, we can help you seek a sole managing conservatorship. We conduct a thorough review of the circumstances to establish fair provisions for possession and access.

If you are dealing with a dispute over child support or conservatorship, we will fight for your rights and work toward an outcome that is truly in your child’s best interests. Contact us today to speak to a trusted and experienced family law attorney.

Providing Sound Legal Advice During the Adoption Process

Texas requires adoptive parents to be financially stable and at least 21 years of age. Whether you’re looking to adopt domestically or from another country, we’ll clearly outline the relevant requirements so you’ll have a full understanding of the process from the start. Our attorney can prepare the necessary documentation and inform you about the interview and home visit process. By providing comprehensive counsel and helping you to avoid common pitfalls, we can maximize your ability to add to your family.
