FAQs

How Long Does it Take to Get a Divorce in Texas?

It depends on the facts of your case and how much you and your spouse are able to agree on. In Texas, your divorce must be on file for at least 60 days. However, keep in mind that it is exceptionally rare for a divorce to be finalized in that length of time.

Can I Get a Legal Separation in Texas?

Texas does not have a mechanism for granting a legal separation; either you are legally married, or you are divorced. Even though there is no legal status known as separation, you and your spouse can enter into an agreement regarding the terms of your separation, such as how you will divide property. This can evolve into a settlement agreement for your divorce, should you ultimately decide to pursue that.

Is There an Advantage to Filing for Divorce Before My Spouse Does?

There is often a strategic advantage to filing first, depending on the facts of your case. If you think your spouse is going to file and you feel as if you are just waiting for the other shoe to drop, it may be advantageous to file first. Also, if you and your spouse live in different counties, you may prefer to file in the county in which you live if you are eligible to do so.

What Are the Court Costs to File for Divorce?

At a minimum, you will need to pay a filing fee. You may also need to pay a fee for having your spouse served with the divorce papers. Fees vary from county to county, but in general, you can expect to pay in the neighborhood of $300-$400.

How Will the Court Decide Custody of My Children?

If you and your spouse can agree on custody, that is ideal, since you know your family and its needs better than any judge could. However, if you are unable to reach an agreement, the court will decide custody based on the best interests of the child. The court will take into account many factors, such as the age of the child, the child's wishes, acts or omissions by each parent that indicate their parental fitness, the stability of each parent's home, and the emotional and physical needs of the child.
