Legal Advice From Your Trusted Austin, TX, Family Lawyer
We don’t expect to need court intervention in personal, private family matters, but it becomes unavoidable in some cases, like a divorce or disputed child custody. Many family relationships also have legal obligations, and when these relationships change, the legal obligations do so, as well. Our Austin, TX family lawyer can help protect your privacy and rights in family law matters and work toward a solution that benefits you and meets your needs.
Whether you want to file for divorce, need help getting child support from the child’s other parent, have a question about grandparent’s rights, or are fleeing a domestic violence situation, we can explain your legal options and give you the advocacy you need to improve your family situation. Contact Gray Becker, P.C. today for a consultation.
We Offer A Wide Range Of Family Law Services
Our Texas family law attorneys represent clients like you in a variety of different cases. We tailor our advice to your needs and may be able to help you come up with a solution you haven’t thought of. From preparing for court appearances to speaking for you in mediation, we are ready to fight hard to ensure your needs are met. Our deep knowledge of Texas family law statutes and case law, coupled with our familiarity with local courts through our decades of family law practice, make us uniquely qualified to help with matters concerning:
- Divorce and separation. Although Texas does not have a legal separation (you’re either legally married or legally divorced), we can help you with temporary orders to facilitate a more livable arrangement while the divorce proceeds, like child custody or who has possession of the family home.
- Annulment. Sometimes, we can un-do a marriage, making it so that legally, it never occurred. We’ll help you explore the different grounds for annulment in Texas.
- Child custody and support. Although there are “standard” custody arrangements in Texas, they may not work for your family. We can help develop a workable shared custody arrangement with the child’s other parent or help you file a petition for supervised visitation if you believe that your child isn’t safe with the other parent.
- Spousal support. If you believe you should receive alimony or if your soon-to-be ex is requesting alimony and you don’t believe you should have to pay it, we can help you present your petition to the judge the right way, advocating for your position in court or mediation.
- Grandparents’ rights. Although grandparents don’t have a legal right to visitation in Texas, there are occasions when a grandparent may receive custody of the child.
- Adoption. When you’re ready to expand your family, we can help you with infant adoption, stepchild adoption, or foster child adoption.
- Domestic violence. If you are being abused, we want to help you. Texas courts take domestic violence very seriously, and we can help you petition for the fullest protections under the law.
