What Can I File for in Texas?
At The Law Office of Milena Christopher, we help our clients in all aspects of the divorce process, including but not limited to:
- Division of property: Texas is a community property state. We can help you understand how this will affect your assets and debts in a divorce.
- Child custody, parenting time, and visitation: We can help you determine whether joint or sole custody would work best for your family. Also, we can work with you to create a visitation schedule that takes into account your schedules, holidays, and the needs of your child(ren).
- Child support: The Texas child support guidelines act as a formula for determining child support based on your income and several other factors. We can provide you with a straightforward assessment of how much child support you will receive or pay in your divorce.
- Alimony and spousal support: We can work with you to determine whether temporary or permanent alimony is appropriate for your situation.
In addition, we help our clients through military divorces and/or out-of-state (multi-state) custody issues. If you need to have a support or custody agreement changed after your divorce, or if you need to relocate, we can assist you with these issues.
