Divorce Proceedings

Texas law recognizes both fault and no-fault divorce grounds, with no-fault divorces based on insupportability due to discord or conflict that destroys the marriage relationship. 

Fault-based divorces may be granted on grounds including adultery, conviction of a felony, abandonment, living apart for at least three years, confinement in a mental hospital, or cruel treatment as outlined in the Texas Family Code. Our attorneys are highly experienced in managing various types of divorce cases, including:

• Uncontested divorces.
• Contested divorces.
• High-asset divorces.
• High-net-worth divorces.
• Contentious divorces.

Military divorces can be more complicated because of special laws about military benefits, deployments, and where a case can be filed. The Law Office of Brett H. Pritchard has strong experience helping military families and understands the unique challenges of military life. As a thank-you to those who have served, we proudly offer a military discount.

Child-Related Family Law Matters

When children are involved, every decision carries significant emotional and legal weight. Our team approaches child-related matters with compassion and care, ensuring that your family's unique dynamics are respected while protecting your children's best interests. We relentlessly pursue the best interests of the child, while simultaneously advocating for our client's parental rights:

• Custody: Legal custody defines who has the authority to make key decisions affecting a child's life. In contrast, physical custody determines where the child will live and how their time will be divided.
• Support: Child support ensures children receive financial assistance, ensuring both parents contribute according to state guidelines. Support calculations consider income, custody arrangements, and additional expenses such as healthcare and childcare.
• Visitation: Visitation schedules establish when non-custodial parents spend time with their children. Parenting time schedules must balance parental rights with children's needs and daily routines.
• Paternity: Establishing paternity legally recognizes the father-child relationship and associated rights and responsibilities. Paternity determination affects custody, support, and inheritance rights for all parties involved.

Child-related family law matters require experienced attorneys who understand the intricacies of Texas law and local court procedures. Our hands-on approach ensures every aspect of your children's welfare is properly addressed. We strive to achieve outcomes that serve your family's long-term interests while minimizing disruption to your children's lives.

Asset Division

In a Texas divorce, assets and property are divided according to the principle of community and separate property. Community property, generally acquired during the marriage, is subject to equitable division. Separate property is typically owned before marriage or received as a gift or inheritance, and remains with the original owner. Our Milam County family lawyer team helps ensure all property is accurately classified and fairly distributed, protecting your financial interests throughout the process.

Spousal Maintenance

Spousal maintenance may be awarded in Texas under specific circumstances outlined in the Texas Family Code. To determine eligibility for spousal support, our attorneys evaluate factors such as:

• Marriage duration.
• Earning capacity.
• Age and health of both spouses.
• Financial resources.

The Law Office of Brett H. Pritchard works to achieve fair maintenance arrangements that provide the support you need. Our attorneys are committed to protecting your financial interests and helping you move forward with confidence and security.

Modifications and Enforcement

We understand that life changes require legal adjustments, and we help clients handle these processes effectively. Our Milam County family attorneys handle modification requests and enforcement actions to ensure that court orders remain relevant and enforceable.
