The Colony Divorce Attorney
Lawyer for High Net Worth Divorce and Uncontested Divorce in The Colony, Texas
Divorce is an unfortunate reality of modern American life, and a significant percentage of people who get married will choose to dissolve their legal partnership with their spouse. While the process of ending a marriage can be difficult from both a practical and emotional standpoint, divorce also represents an opportunity for a new beginning, allowing spouses to leave a relationship that is not working and start a new chapter in their lives. Regardless of whether a divorce is amicable or contentious, it is important to secure representation from a skilled attorney.

Legal Help With Divorce-Related Issues in The Colony
During the divorce process, we will help you understand the legal issues that you will need to address and resolve, and we will work with you to find the best solutions to any disputes that may arise. We can assist with:
- Uncontested divorce - If you and your spouse may be planning to resolve your divorce outside of the courtroom, we can ensure that all issues will be addressed correctly in your divorce settlement. We will help you identify any concerns and ensure that you avoid any errors that could cause complications in the future.
- High net worth divorce - Cases involving large assets or incomes can become very complex. We can help you sort out the financial concerns that may arise during your divorce, ensuring that you will have the resources you need once your case is complete.
- Property division - You and your spouse will need to divide all assets and debts that are considered community property. We can help you create a property settlement that addresses multiple different types of assets, including business interests, retirement accounts, and real estate property.
- Child custody & visitation - If you share children with your spouse, you will need to determine how you will share in making decisions about how they will be raised, and you will need to create schedules for "physical possession," or the time that your kids will spend with each parent. In addition to helping you address these issues, we can also assist with cases involving parental relocation.
- Child support - We can provide you with representation in cases involving the Texas Attorney General's Child Support Division.
- Alimony - We can help you understand whether spousal support will be appropriate following your divorce and ensure that you will have the financial resources you need.
- Tax considerations - We can help you address tax-related issues such as who will claim children as dependents and how taxes will apply to the division of marital assets.
