How Do Texas Family Courts Resolve Cases?
Courts resolve issues by examining all relevant factors and making decisions based on what is in the best interest of children or the fairness of the situation, depending on the circumstances.
In child-related matters, judges consider each parent's ability to care for the child, the financial situation of each parent, the future needs of the child, how custody will impact school, home, and social connections, and more.
In property division, Texas is a community property state, meaning all assets acquired during the marriage are considered joint property and will be divided equitably in the event of a divorce. This issue can be complicated by many factors, such as how property is characterized in terms of “separate” or jointly-held, the valuation of assets, each party’s debt responsibility, one party’s future earnings based on career education or training obtained by contributions from the other spouse, and more.
