What is Domestic Relations Law in Texas?
Domestic relations law in Texas covers legal issues such as marriage, dissolution of marriage, child custody, child support, adoption, paternity, and domestic violence. Dissolution of marriage involves dividing property under Texas’s community property laws and may include spousal support. Child custody (conservatorship) is determined based on the child’s best interests, while child support follows state income guidelines. Domestic relations law also addresses adoption, guardianship, protective orders for domestic violence, and paternity actions. Modifications and enforcement of court orders, like custody or support, are also common. In Texas, these cases are handled in family or district courts.
