Caring, Experienced Family Law Guidance in Dallas, Collin, Denton and Tarrant Counties

When searching for resolutions to complicated family law issues, the assistance of an experienced lawyer can be invaluable. Whether you are considering divorce, are concerned about property division, have a child custody or support dispute, or need to modify an existing custody or support order, effective legal counsel can help you move forward quickly and successfully.

With 30 years of legal experience, I offer detail-driven family law guidance to clients throughout Dallas, Collin, Denton and Tarrant counties. With significant experience in litigation inside the courtroom and negotiation outside the courtroom, I am able to help you achieve the resolution you deserve through whatever approach will serve you best.

I assist clients in a wide range of family law issues, including:

• Contested and uncontested divorce: Whether you and your spouse can come to an agreement, or litigation is necessary to resolve the matter, my divorce services are designed to guide you through the process of dissolving your marriage and creating functional arrangements for the future.
• Property division: My property division advice will help you receive your fair share of marital property and assets. I also offer guidance on the segregation of non-marital funds or assets to help protect your property obtained outside the course of the marriage.
• Child custody: Among the most emotional aspects of a divorce is the determination of child custody. My child custody representation will help ensure that your voice is heard during the process of creating a custody arrangement and that your children’s best interests are the top priority throughout the process.
• Post divorce modifications: As circumstances change, child custody and support arrangements can become outdated and create unnecessary strain on your life. Fortunately, following life changes, it is often possible to modify support or custody arrangements and create a plan that better fits your situation.

I also have significant legal experience in addressing other concerns, including:

Separation Annulment Pre-nuptial and post nuptial agreements Spousal support or alimony Domestic abuse, family violence and child abuse Visitation Paternity Collaborative law

Mediation Common law marriage Enforcement Protective orders Restraining orders Termination of parental rights Divorce planning Step-parent adoptions Name changes Grandparent rights
