To learn how you can get through the dissolution of your marriage, contact an experienced Tarrant County divorce lawyer at our office.
Even under the best of circumstances, divorce can be confusing, and it's hard to make sound decisions in a state of confusion. We work closely with you from the very beginning to give you a realistic idea of your rights and responsibilities under the Texas Family Code. This helps you to identify and develop your objectives with a solid sense of what's possible. Then we go to work to resolve the issues that are likely to develop in your divorce case, including:
- Property division, including dividing responsibility for marital debts
- Alimony
- Temporary child support and custody arrangements
- Child custody and visitation orders
- Tax consequences of property division and support agreements or decrees
Most Texas divorce settlements are reached through negotiation and agreement rather than through court order, but it is not always easy to find the right point of compromise. Tarrant County divorce attorney Brooks Lynn is a skilled negotiator who understands how to find points of agreement in even the most heated disputes. He also knows how to make the most of opportunities to resolve your disagreement through mediation and other techniques for alternative dispute resolution.
In some cases, an understanding of your rights under the law won't be enough to ensure a positive outcome in a divorce case. In situations where alcohol or drug abuse interferes with a marriage or parental responsibilities, or where physical or emotional health problems prevent you from being the parent you would like to be, we can help you find access to outstanding community-based counseling or treatment programs that can help you get past your mistakes. We also have found that committed and effective steps toward self-improvement will make a very favorable impression on a family court judge.
Our objective in a divorce case is to help you achieve your goals for yourself and your children while developing a sense that the best years of your life are yet to come. For positive, supportive and dependable advice in a Texas divorce case, contact Colleyville family law attorney Brooks Lynn.
