How much would a divorce cost

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
You will get information about legal fees when you meet with a lawyer. Some lawyers post their fees online, but fees are generally specific to each case. Some attorney charge flat fees and some charge a retainer and then bill their hourly rate, court costs and expenses against the retainer. There are also variations and hybrids of those fee arrangements.

Are there exceptions to the overnight guest clause?

Answered by attorney Jeffrey Wittenbrink
Divorce lawyer at Wittenbrink Law Firm
If there is a court order restricting overnight visitation by guests of the opposite sex, living with an opposite sex partner is in violation of the order. If that person is your fiance', the easiest and best solution is to get married. If persons are married, they are allowed to live with their new spouses without restriction. If you are not going to be married, you must return to court and show why changing the order is in the "best interest of the children." Not for the convenience of the parties, not for the ease of relationship, but in the childrens' "best interest." This is a difficult burden if the parties are not married. You should contact a family law attorney directly to discuss the specifics of your case, as the above information is general, and not legal advise.

Do I need a lawyer?

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
Because you have a signficant amount of separate property, it would be a good idea to get an attorney to protect your rights. In Texas, all property is presumed to be community property during a divorce, unless that property was obtained by gift, devise or descent and unless it was obtained before the marriage. You would need to produce paperwork showing when you bought your house and cars. You would also need to show when your 401K started and how much it increased in valude during the marriage. Your spouse would be entitled to half of the growth during the marriage, but sometimes, there is no growth or it's so mimimal that the other spouse decides not to go through the trouble and expense of getting their share. Again, the best way to protect your rights is to get an attorney to represent you.
