Child Custody and Child Support
Any parents worst nightmare during a divorce is losing the ability to see their children after or during this hard time. In the state of Texas, most divorced parents get possession of their children during designated days, such as every other weekend, every other major holiday, or during the summer. It is possible for some parents to work out an even more split-time schedule.
It is every parents dream to come up with an ideal situation when it comes to child custody, but this doesn’t happen often. You need an attorney with the capability to advise you of your options.
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. After a child support order is determined, there may become a need for assistance in enforcing that order or in seeking a modification. If circumstances put you in a position where you find yourself unable to pay child support such as job loss, illness, accident or unexpected financial expense, you may be able to obtain a modification to your child support order. If you are seeking to collect child support payments, our staff at Edmondson Law will aggressively assert your rights and the best interests of the child.
At the Edmondson Law Firm, we encourage parents always to put the needs of children first when involved in a divorce, paternity proceeding or other contested family law matters.
Paternity, Adoptions, and Premarital Agreements
As a mother or father determining the paternity of a child, it is important to work with a family law attorney who is experienced in DNA testing and other paternity issues. We want to provide an open line of communication with all parties to ensure you understand your legal rights while making important decisions that will affect your family’s future.
Adding a child to your family through adoption is a cause for joy, but the Texas laws regulating adoption can be complex and require a skilled attorney who can guide you efficiently through the adoption process and avoid legal pitfalls that could result in expensive delays or worse, including an adoption denial. We are here to create new families in Texas through adoption and are here to help you through the entire process.
Drafting premarital agreements can be a practical step in a relationship. Premarital agreements are a way for people to establish a written contract pertaining to property rights after marriage. These agreements can be drafted in many ways; they can be used to protect property designated for children of a previous relationship, protect one spouse from the debts of the other, distinguish separate property from community property, and other purposes. Our experienced family law attorneys at Edmondson Law can draft your Texas premarital agreement that will give you peace of mind knowing you have a legally sound contract to protect your future.
