Modifying and Enforcing Judicial Orders

A divorce does not mean the end of a couple’s relationship with each other. The couple may continue to have a financial relationship if one spouse receives ongoing support, and they will likely have significant contact if they share children.

Sometimes, the orders governing these relationships become unworkable as time passes. In other cases, a spouse might stop complying with the order out of necessity or without justification. Modifying orders and taking action to enforce them could be appropriate in these cases.

Consult an attorney when an order is no longer effective, or a spouse is non-compliant. They could offer advice about the best way to rectify the problem and represent your position in court when necessary.

Strong Representation in Divorce Proceedings

Divorce is one of the most stressful events a person can experience. Capable and supportive legal representation is essential to emerge from a divorce prepared to move forward and live life to the fullest.

An Austin family attorney could provide invaluable guidance throughout the process, from the moment a spouse starts seriously considering divorce to implementing the orders in the final divorce decree. Whether a couple has little property to divide and is eager to part amicably or has substantial wealth and significant conflict, a legal professional could protect a spouse’s rights, ensure the divorce settlement is fair, and position the children to thrive.

Property Division Issues

In a community property state, spouses have equal rights to all property the couple accumulated during the marriage. The couple must disclose all their assets and debts, value their property, and agree to a fair division. In most cases, the value of the property should be split evenly or very close to evenly.

Issues that often arise in property division negotiations include distinguishing personal from marital property, allocating marital debt, and obtaining accurate valuation of assets like business interests or professional practices. An Austin family lawyer has substantial expertise in these matters and could advocate strongly to support a spouse’s interests.

Matters Involving Children

The law presumes that children benefit from close relationships with both their parents. Courts favor arrangements where each parent spends considerable time caring for the children and shares decision-making responsibility. However, parents can deviate from that arrangement when it is not appropriate or practicable in their case.

Parents must submit a proposed parenting plan to the court for approval as part of the divorce settlement process. In all questions concerning children, Texas Family Code §153.002 requires judges to prioritize their best interests.

Spousal Maintenance

The state does not routinely award spousal maintenance, but a court may award it when a couple has been married for ten years or more and the requesting spouse cannot meet their basic expenses without ongoing support. Generally, the amount of spousal support is 20 percent of the payor’s gross income or $2,500 per month, whichever is less, and a spouse typically receives spousal maintenance for no more than 36 months.

Mediated Divorce is Often an Appealing Option

Many couples prefer to settle their differences privately rather than making public court filings and leaving their personal issues for a judge to decide. Our firm employs certified mediators who can serve as neutral third parties and guide negotiations that result in a divorce settlement.

When acting as a mediator, a family lawyer in Austin does not represent either party. In most cases, the mediator will discuss the outstanding issues with the spouses and their respective attorneys before beginning negotiations. Some couples might choose to work with a mediator without independent legal representation.

When both parties engage with the intent to resolve their issues, mediation can produce settlement agreements and avoid the need for a judge to decide. The parties typically have their personal attorneys review the agreements, then submit them to the court for incorporation into the divorce decree.
