Benefits of Prenups & Postnups
shield-icon
Comprehensive legal protection

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements offer couples in Texas a wide range of benefits that go far beyond simply planning for the possibility of divorce. These legally binding agreements, crafted with the help of experienced family law attorneys, provide a clear framework for how assets, property, and debts will be managed both during and after a marriage. By setting out each party's financial responsibilities and expectations, these agreements help protect family wealth, secure individual assets, and reduce the risk of misunderstandings or disputes.

Security & Clarity

One of the most significant advantages of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements is the security they provide. Couples can address critical issues such as alimony, child support, and the division of property in advance, ensuring that both parties are aware of their rights and obligations. This clarity can be especially valuable in complex family situations, such as blended families or marriages involving significant assets or business interests.

Simplified Divorce Process

If a marriage does end, having a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement in place can make the divorce process smoother and less contentious. By having already agreed on how to handle property, debts, and support, couples can avoid lengthy court battles and protect their family's emotional and financial well-being. These agreements can also address child custody and support arrangements, providing additional peace of mind for parents.

Building Trust & Understanding

Ultimately, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are about more than just protecting money—they are about building a foundation of trust, transparency, and mutual respect. With guidance from a knowledgeable law office, couples can create agreements that reflect their unique needs and provide lasting benefits for their family's future.

FAQs – El Paso Family Law Attorney

What are the grounds for divorce in Texas?

Texas offers both no-fault and fault-based divorce. The most common reason is in-supportability, meaning the marriage can no longer continue due to conflict. Fault-based grounds include cruelty, adultery, felony conviction, abandonment, and living apart for over three years.

What’s the difference between contested and uncontested divorce?

An uncontested divorce means both parties agree on major issues like property division, custody, and support. A contested divorce involves disputes that may require mediation or litigation. We handle both.

How long does it take to get divorced in Texas?

The shortest possible timeline is 60 days from the date of filing. However, contested divorces or those involving children and complex assets can take several months to resolve.

Does Texas favor mothers in custody cases?

Not necessarily. While Texas once had a reputation as a 'Mother State,' courts now aim for a decision in the best interest of the child, without bias.

What is joint custody in Texas?

Texas refers to joint custody as joint managing conservatorship. This allows both parents to share decision-making rights and duties. However, it doesn't always mean equal time and therefore parenting time is determined separately.

Can custody or support orders be modified later?

Yes. If there’s a material and substantial change in circumstances — such as job loss, relocation, or change in the child’s needs — you can request a modification. We handle both modifications and enforcement cases.

How is child support calculated in Texas?

Texas follows a percentage-based model, typically based on the noncustodial parent’s income and the number of children. However, adjustments can be made for health insurance, other children, and special needs.

How does military divorce differ from civilian divorce?

Military divorces involve unique issues like BAH, retirement benefits, deployment, and residency requirements. Siobhan understands the nuances of representing military families near Fort Bliss.

What happens at the initial consultation?

You’ll meet directly with Siobhan, who will review the facts of your case, walk you through the best and worst-case scenarios, outline the next legal steps, and explain the costs involved.

Can I get a protective order in a family law case?

Yes. If you're experiencing threats, harassment, or abuse, you may qualify for a protective order to help ensure your and your child’s safety.

Do you handle adoptions and termination of parental rights?

Yes. We assist with both private and step-parent adoptions and can handle the legal complexities of terminating parental rights when it’s in the child’s best interest.

How much does it cost to hire a family law attorney?

Every case is different. During your consultation, we’ll outline a transparent fee structure, including retainers and potential ongoing costs. While we don’t offer free consultations, we believe the insight you gain is worth the investment.
