Property

At the time of divorce, the State of Texas assumes that the property acquired during the marriage by either spouse to be community property and as such divided equally. In situations where the division of goods is not equal or fair, an experienced family law attorney can represent your needs and an evenhanded resolution. In some instances, an unequal property division may be warranted based upon the circumstances. Randy Wilson can effectively assert your rights to ensure you recover the assets you are entitled to under law.

Child Custody & Support

In general, a child’s parents are considered joint conservators as a result of a marriage. Both parents have an equal right to custody when the parents divorce regardless of gender. While this appears simple and uncomplicated, determining the child's living arrangements and visitation can often be the cause of tremendous dispute. Other issues regarding children affected by divorce include the amount of child support paid to support the child's development as well as visitation rights. Mr. Wilson is experienced in obtaining the best results for you and for your children based upon the circumstances of your particular case. In today's society, many children are born outside a marital relationship. Randy also handles many cases involving support, custody and visitation involving non-traditional family relationships.

Spousal Maintenance

Spousal maintenance or alimony may be awarded to either spouse for financial support while the divorce is pending and in some instances after the divorce has been finalized. The payments are calculated to assist a spouse financially in maintaining a similar lifestyle and making the adjustment into full-time employment, if possible. Randy's experience in family law can effectively accomplish your needs during this process.
