Strategic Resolution of Family Law Disputes

Family conflicts demand thoughtful strategy and careful planning to secure the best outcomes while reducing emotional stress. Our hands-on approach to resolving disputes combines aggressive advocacy with diplomatic negotiation techniques. We are committed to safeguarding your interests while pursuing solutions that support your family’s long-term well-being.

Divorce and Marriage

Marriage matters, including dissolution, demand careful attention to both legal requirements and personal circumstances that affect your future. The Law Office of Brett H. Pritchard handles all aspects of matrimonial law with compassion and resolve. We support clients through every step of the process, safeguarding their financial stability and parental rights:

• Prenuptial Agreements: Comprehensive contracts establishing financial arrangements and property division before saying, "I do."
• Postnuptial Agreements: Legal documents addressing financial matters and asset protection during marriage.
• Separation Agreements: Formal arrangements that outline terms for couples living apart while remaining legally married.
• Divorce Mediation: An alternative dispute resolution process that allows couples to reach agreements outside of court.
• Divorce Litigation: Aggressive courtroom representation when negotiation fails to produce acceptable outcomes.
• Spousal Support: Legal advocacy to establish fair maintenance payments based on financial need and circumstances.

The Texas Family Code (Sec. 7.006) enforces the court's consideration of various factors when determining spousal maintenance awards. Our attorneys possess thorough knowledge of these statutory requirements and work to ensure fair treatment under the law.

Children and Parenting

Child-related legal matters require sensitivity and advocacy for the best interests of minor children involved in family disputes. We advocate zealously for parental rights while prioritizing children's welfare and stability above all else. Our comprehensive approach addresses the immediate needs and long-term planning for your children's future:

• Paternity: Legal establishment of father-child relationships through court proceedings or voluntary acknowledgment. Establishing paternity can affect custody, visitation, and child support rights.
• Child Custody: Determination of conservatorship rights and residential arrangements that serve children's best interests. We work to create stable and supportive environments tailored to each child’s needs.
• Child Support: Calculations and implementation of financial duties according to Texas Family Code guidelines. Guaranteeing reliable support helps preserve your child's standard of living and welfare.
• Parenting Coordination: Professional assistance to resolve ongoing disputes between divorced or separated parents. This process promotes cooperative decision-making and reduces conflict in the child’s daily life.
• Adoption: Legal processes to establish permanent parent-child relationships through various adoption procedures. Our attorneys guide families through every step to ensure a smooth and legally sound adoption.
• CPS Cases: Defense against child protective services investigations and removal proceedings. We advocate vigorously to protect parental rights while prioritizing the child’s safety and best interests.

The Texas Family Code (Sec. 153.002) establishes the paramount consideration of the child's best interest in all custody determinations. The Law Office of Brett H. Pritchard applies this standard rigorously while advocating for our clients' parental rights and maintaining family bonds whenever possible.
