Texas Contested Divorce
If you are filing for divorce, you must demonstrate that you have Texas residency. You must also show that you have lived for 90 days in the county in which you file the divorce papers. The initial paperwork that you file will contain basic information about you, your spouse, your marriage, and any children you may have.
A divorce is contested when the divorcing parties cannot agree on a settlement. At this point, the parties will require legal representation to settle issues such as:
Division of marital assets
We believe that mediation and compromise are often the best way to get a favorable result for all parties involved. Even in a contested divorce, your divorce attorney can negotiate on your behalf to protect your interests. Avoiding litigation in contested divorces will save you money and alleviate some stress. Having a competent attorney to negotiate on your behalf can help you achieve your goals and protect your interests.
