LGBT Marital and Partnership Dissolution

Same-sex divorce is now a reality in Texas, particularly in light of retroactive informal marriage claims based on long-standing commitments between same-sex partners.  The legal landscape is surprisingly complex.  We have developed an expertise and appreciation for the special concerns of the LGBT client.  In fact, we have achieved what is likely the first same-sex divorce in the State of Texas.  It is our intention and experience that the goals of our LGBT client are met at the end of our engagement.
