What To Know About Family Law in Texas
Family law is a uniquely sensitive area of law. The outcome of a divorce or child custody decision has real life impacts on everyone involved, so it’s important to get things right the first time.
Davis & Associates proudly represents individuals and families in Texas who are dealing with some of the most complex issues in their lives. Our unique retainer system allows us to provide expert legal guidance at an affordable price to our community.
Divorce Considerations
Texas is a no-fault state for divorce. This means that you are not required to provide a reason for the divorce and instead may cite irreconcilable differences. There are residency requirements, though. You must be a resident of Texas for at least six months and a resident of the county in which you’re filing for a period of at least 90 days.
If you are planning to file for divorce, remember that this legal process involves resolving a number of other issues such as property division, spousal maintenance, child custody, child support, and more.
Helpful next step: Learn More About Divorce.
Custody and Parenting Plans
If you have children, you’ll be required to complete a parenting plan as part of your divorce process. A parenting plan is a legal document that outlines important issues like custody, legal decision making, visitation, and child support. Some parenting plans may also include details about how parents will collaboratively manage the upbringing of their children post-divorce.
The details of a parenting plan are important because they will impact almost every aspect of your child’s life.

Child Support
Life after a divorce can be confusing and uncertain for adults, and even more so for children. Protecting and preserving a financially stable life for children even after their parents have divorce is essential.
It’s important to understand that one parent may still need to pay child support even if they have 50/50 shared custody. This money is intended to cover costs like housing, health insurance, childcare, and more.
The court can also issue a child support order even if parents were never married.
Helpful next step: Learn More About Child Support.
Spousal Maintenance
Spousal maintenance, also sometimes known as spousal support or alimony, is not a given outcome of divorce in Texas. The court will evaluate a variety of factors to determine whether it’s appropriate to award maintenance, including:
- The duration of the marriage
- Each spouse’s contribution
- Current earnings and earning capacities
The amount of time you receive spousal maintenance is typically contingent on the length of the marriage. However, if there was a history of family violence in the marriage, the court may determine it appropriate to order a longer period for maintenance.

Finding the Right Legal Help
How Davis & Associates Helps Texas Families
Let us know where you’re located and what’s going on. Our first step toward providing the representation you need is understanding you, your unique needs, and the situation that you’re in.
We’ll route you to the best office and team based on your location and legal needs. If you are in Dallas, Houston, nearby communities, or elsewhere in Texas, we can help you find the right starting point.
Once we understand the details, we can explain the options that may be available under Texas family law. No two family law cases are alike, but this can include negotiation, mediation, filing a case, responding to a court action, requesting temporary orders, or taking steps to protect your children, finances, or safety.
After your options are clear, Davis & Associates helps you take the next step with a focused legal strategy. The goal is to give you direction, reduce uncertainty, and help you make informed decisions about your family’s future.

Family law is a unique area of law that deals with some of the most complex and confusing issues in life. Working with an attorney can help protect you and your rights as you deal with divorce, child custody, spousal maintenance, property division, and more.
You must be a resident of the state of Texas for a minimum of six months before filing for divorce. If you’ve lived here for less than six months but intend to file for divorce, you may still consult with an attorney about your legal options and what to expect.
Moving out of state with a child after divorce can be difficult. It’s important that you do not make this move without approval from the courts, or you could risk both physical and legal custody of your child. We strongly encourage that you work with a knowledgeable attorney if you believe it is in you and your child’s best interests to move out of state.
