Understanding Divorce in Texas
No-Fault vs. Fault Divorce
Texas allows both no-fault and fault-based divorces:
No-Fault Divorce – Granted when spouses can no longer reconcile due to irreconcilable differences.
Fault-Based Divorce – May be granted when one spouse can prove adultery, cruelty, abandonment, or other misconduct.
Understanding which type of divorce best suits your situation can impact spousal support, property division, and other legal outcomes.
Community Property & Property Division
Texas is a community property state, meaning most assets acquired during marriage are presumed to belong equally to both spouses. However, certain assets may be classified as separate property with clear legal proof.
Marital property may include:
✔ Real estate (homes, rental properties)
✔ Retirement accounts & investments
✔ Businesses & professional practices
✔ Bank accounts & financial assets
✔ Vehicles, jewelry, artwork, and more
The division of assets can be complex, especially in high-net-worth divorces. Our attorneys fight for a fair outcome, ensuring that your financial future remains protected.
