These include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Divorce, including special cases like high net worth divorces; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Property division; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Interactions with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfps.state.tx.us\/child_protection\/\"><span style=\"color: #1155cc;\"><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"><u>Texas Child Protective Services (CPS)<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Asset protection; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Creating and modifying child custody orders; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Creating and modifying child support orders; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Termination of parental rights; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Spousal support orders; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Domestic violence claims and protective orders; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Parents\u2019 rights, specifically fathers\u2019 rights; <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Adoption; and <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Enforcing existing family court orders. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Family law issues can be complicated. When a case centers around a child, the court\u2019s focal point is nearly always the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/best-interests-of-the-child-standard-overview-2997765\"><span style=\"color: #1155cc;\"><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"><u>child\u2019s best interest<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">. In a similar vein, the family\u2019s individual circumstances must be considered to determine an appropriate ruling. Because of these factors, every family law case is unique; do not assume that your divorce settlement will be the same as your friend or sibling\u2019s divorce settlement.<\/span><br \/>\n[et_pb_section global_module=\"10101\"][\/et_pb_section]<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"><b>Working Toward a Fair Outcome<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">In many family law cases, a favorable outcome is not cut-and-dry like it is with other types of case. For example, in a criminal case, a favorable outcome for the defendant is the court finding him or her to be not guilty. When the case at hand is one determining how your assets are divided or how often you will get to see your children after your divorce, there is no clear sense of \u201cwinning.\u201d Rather, the court uses the available data to determine the settlement that best fits all involved parties\u2019 interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Your family lawyer\u2019s job is to act as your advocate. The evidence you provide in family court attests to your relationships and demonstrates your net worth. With a family law case, a favorable outcome is typically one that protects your rights and meets all or most of your goals while remaining fair to the other parties involved, your former spouse and your children. Often, our team works to collaborate with the other parties involved in our clients\u2019 cases to reach fair, mutually satisfying settlements. When this is not possible, we are prepared to head to the courtroom to litigate on our clients\u2019 behalves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"><b>Work with an Experienced League City Family Lawyer<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\">Whether you are planning to end your marriage, establish a child support order, adopt a child, or modify an existing divorce settlement, it is in your best interest to work with an experienced <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sbrownlawyer.com\/contact\/\"><span style=\"color: #1155cc;\"><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"><u>family lawyer<\/u><\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Cambria, serif;\"> who will advocate for your rights and interests.
