Legal Help With Family Law Matters in Marble Falls

Attorney Baker provides representation to clients in multiple types of family law cases, and he can help address issues related to:

• Divorce - The dissolution of a couple's marriage may involve contentious disputes over a variety of issues. However, even if a couple agrees to work together to pursue an amicable divorce, they will need to address multiple legal and financial concerns. We can help our clients negotiate a divorce settlement that fully details the division of marital property, including in complex cases involving business owners or retirement benefits. We can also help our clients determine whether they will be eligible to receive spousal support payments or whether they may be required to make these payments to their former spouse.
• Child custody - Most of the time, divorcing or unmarried parents will be able to share legal custody of their children, which is known as conservatorship in Texas. In addition to addressing their rights and responsibilities when making decisions for their children, parents will also need to determine how they will divide physical custody of children. We work to help parents reach agreements that will protect their children's best interests and ensure that they will be able to maintain positive family relationships in the years to come.
• Child support - Parents are required to provide financial support for their children, ensuring that their ongoing needs will be met. We can make sure child support obligations are calculated correctly based on parents' financial resources, and we can also help parents address other child-related costs, including those related to child care, medical care, education, or extracurricular activities.
• CPS cases - If Child Protective Services receives reports that a child may have experienced abuse or neglect, it may perform an investigation into a family's circumstances. Based on the results of an investigation, CPS may take legal action to remove children from a parent's home or place restrictions on a parent's custody of their children. We provide representation in these cases to help parents protect their rights, and we also help address grandparents' rights in these situations.
• Paternity - If parents are unmarried, certain procedures must be followed to establish that a father is a child's legal parent. We work with parents to make sure they follow the correct steps when establishing paternity while also helping them address related issues, such as child custody and child support.
• Premarital agreements - Before getting married, couples can take steps to protect their assets and make decisions about how matters will be handled if they choose to get a divorce. We work with couples to draft and negotiate valid, enforceable marital agreements.
