Tarrant County, TX Family Law Lawyer

Texas family law matters such as divorce, child custody, domestic abuse, and adoption are some of the most emotionally charged legal challenges a family law firm handles on a daily basis. However, it is important to distance yourself from the emotion and to handle these cases with the care they deserve. The outcome of these issues will have a massive impact on your future, both financially and emotionally.

Often, the most important factor of your family law case is the quality of your representation and the legal services they provide. It is important to have the support of a Tarrant County family law lawyer who prioritizes your goals and interests above all else and who has an in-depth understanding of the laws surrounding your case.

High-quality legal representation will help your case to run smoothly while protecting important family dynamics and securing your future.

Child Custody Issues

If you are facing a child custody case, then you are probably dealing with a lot of emotions, which could cloud your judgment. Today’s rash decisions can lead to legal and parenting problems years down the road. It is, therefore, important to have the support and guidance of an attorney who is committed to your child’s best interests, while remaining free from clouded judgment.

At Youngblood Law, PLLC, we will help you to formulate a parenting plan that balances your needs with your children’s. We understand how emotional these cases can be, but we will create a space where everyone feels heard so that you can move forward in the best way possible.

Under Texas law, both parents should remain heavily involved in a child’s life unless one parent poses a risk to the child’s well-being. Therefore, the goal should always be to arrive at a fair and reasonable arrangement that prioritizes the child’s best interests.

Collaborative Divorce

Separating two lives that have been so deeply connected is a complex and often overwhelming experience. For most people, it is one of the hardest times of their lives, which is why it is so important that they have the proper support.

Divorce litigation is expensive and stressful, and at the end of the long journey, the Judge gets the final say which might not be in line with your goals. That is why we offer the Texas collaborative law process wherever possible.

Collaborative law is a legal process that prioritizes interest-based negotiation and minimizing conflict. Our family law lawyers take a personalized approach and will take the time to understand your goals so that we can help you to move forward.

The Collaborative Divorce Process

It is common for divorcing spouses to be at war with each other. Most do not see how they could possibly come to amicable agreements but then are surprised by what they can achieve with our help.

Our Tarrant County family law attorneys are highly skilled in negotiation strategies and conflict resolution. If possible, we will guide you through the collaborative divorce process. Although each case is unique, collaborative divorce usually involves the following:

  • You and your ex-spouse will each hire your own collaborative divorce attorneys.
  • You will each sign a participation agreement which is an agreement to cooperate in a settlement without involving the court.
  • Both spouses will disclose all information regarding their assets and debts.
  • Negotiations will begin.
  • Specialists may be brought in to help you reach some decisions, such as financial experts to help you divide high-value assets.
  • Once you have negotiated all key issues, your attorneys will draft the paperwork ready for you both to sign.
  • Your divorce will be ready to move forward without any need for litigation.

Benefits Of Using Collaborative Law to Resolve Family Law Issues

Using collaborative law to settle your disputes during a divorce has many benefits, including:

  • Moves the divorce process along faster. In a contested divorce, every issue that couples cannot agree on using mediation requires a separate court date. Divorcing couples often have to wait many weeks before the court becomes available to hear their case.
  • It is often cheaper, as court proceedings are expensive.
  • Allows divorcing spouses to compromise and come to agreements that balance everyone’s needs.
  • Ensures that the divorce process is private and confidential.
  • You will have an advocate looking out for your interests, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you can look forward to a bright future.
  • Protects children from stressful court proceedings and fosters healthier relationships between parents, which further protects children from ongoing conflict.
  • Helps foster amicable relationships, which can make everyone’s lives easier, including adults and children.

Property Division

When you divorce your spouse, you will need to go through the process of dividing your debts and assets. In Texas, all assets and debts that either spouse acquired while they were married are considered community property and should be divided in a just and fair manner.

Determining what a just and fair division of property looks like can often be highly contentious. At Youngblood Law, PLLC, we will help you reach an agreement that is in line with your goals, as well as Texas family law.

Spousal Support

Spousal support agreements are sometimes necessary to help one spouse maintain a standard of living after divorce. Especially if that spouse sacrificed job opportunities to care for children and a home. Spousal support payments are often a temporary solution and allow the receiving spouse time to find work or undergo training.

If your case involves a possible spousal support arrangement, then we will help ensure that it is fair and considers both parties’ needs.

Child Support

Parents have a duty to ensure that their children are financially cared for. Often one parent becomes the residential parent, which means that the child will live with them for the majority of the time. When this happens, the other parent may be ordered to pay child support as a way of trying to make parental responsibilities equal.

Adoption

Adopting a child is an incredibly rewarding experience, but the process is long and stressful. Fortunately, the attorneys at Youngblood Law, PLLC, have been helping families adopt children since 2014.

Our law firm will guide you through the process and help you deal with the emotions that arise. We can help with private adoption, relative adoption, stepparent adoption, and foster care adoption. Each type of adoption is different, but we will help streamline the process and help you to secure parental rights for your child.

Domestic Violence

For victims of domestic violence, taking those first steps is incredibly difficult. When you do reach out for help, it is essential that you get support from someone who is dedicated to your needs and understands how to best progress with your case.

Domestic abuse is a family law matter that requires experienced representation, and we are proud to provide that. Regardless of whether you have suffered abuse from someone you are dating, married to, or someone else in your family or household, such as a child, sibling, or another family member.

One of our Tarrant County family law lawyers will help you file a protective order to keep the abuser away from you. Unlike restraining orders, protective orders are flexible and are enforceable by law enforcement and not just by courts.
