How to get help
Confirm divorce residency and child-custody jurisdiction, complete and file the petition and required child-information forms, obtain the spouse's signed answer or waiver for an agreement or arrange formal service for a possible default, complete support and possession terms, satisfy the waiting period, prepare the decree and testimony, and attend the required prove-up.
Who this service helps
For spouses seeking a Texas divorce who have children together younger than 18 or still in high school, have no existing final custody and support order other than a qualifying protective order, and can complete the case by agreement or default. Initial Texas custody jurisdiction generally depends on the child's home-state history.
