Generally speaking the law that controls is the law in the state where the two of you reside when you get a divorce. There are only one or two exceptions to this rule and they relate to ownership of real property in another state or property inherited in another state.

TX - Uncontested Divorce filing w/real property. We are hoping to find a friendly way to use a single attorney to help us divorce

Generally, an attorney will represent one party to the divorce but not both.  That said, some attorneys are willing to draft the decree based on the instructions of the parties.   Based on your inquiry, it appears you will need a divorce decree and documents regarding the real property (i.e., special warranty deed, deed of trust to secure assumption, etc.).   I think you have 2 choices:   1)  One of you hires an attorney who then drafts the final decree of divorce and the real estate related documents.  2)  You both hire an attorney to draft the documents based on your agreement(s).   The down side to option 2 is that the drafting attorney is essentially only a secretary drafting the documents and cannot give either of you legal advice.

You should hire an attorney who practices in the area of family law in or near the county where you live to file a divorce action.  Unless your case is unusually complicated, you should be able to find an attorney who is willing to accept your case for an initial retainer of $5,000-10,000 depending upon your particular facts and circumstances.  That attorney may be able to secure child support for you as well as reimbursement for attorney fees if you lack control of sufficient community funds to pay your attorney and have to borrow or charge the retainer on a credit card if your wife does have control of community funds.
