Frequently Asked Questions
  • How much is child support if it is ordered?
    Texas uses a specific formula to determine the amount of child support. It is based on a parent's gross income and the number of children that the parent has. The possession schedule has no bearing on child support, nor does the recipient spouse's income. That is because child support is the right of the child and not the other parent. It is important to remember that the formula is merely a guideline.
  • What factors does the court look at in determining the division of assets?
    Not necessarily. The property will be divided in a way that is fair and equitable, which does not necessarily mean a 50/50 split. All the factors mentioned above are considered to determine how the property will be divided. Usually, courts will divide property in a way that is close to the 50/50 mark, but often one spouse will receive slightly more. Splits of 45-55 are very common, while it would be highly unusual for a court to divide an estate in a more lopsided way, such as 30-70.
  • What is the Standard Possession Order?
    This is the default schedule that courts use when determining a visitation schedule. It’s a great place for couples to start if they’d like to customize their own schedule. The non-primary parent will get the children every first, third and fifth Friday of the month until the following Sunday. They will usually get a midweek period of possession, Thursday, and it can be overnight. The couples will swap holidays. The parent who gets Thanksgiving will not get Christmas, but this will alternate every year. Finally, the non-primary conservator usually gets the whole month of July, although there are some variations to this schedule.

    “If I EVER need an attorney for anything else (within his line of work) I will definitely be contacting Mr. Dieye again.”
    I had a bad experience with a prior attorney who ended up dropping my divorce/custody case mid way and leaving me high and dry to figure it out for myself. I recieved Papa Dieye's (Jay) information from a family friend. Papa Jay is always on top of things and was very prompt with returning phone calls and keeping me in the loop. 2 days after I obtained his legal services we were already in court finalizing my divorce! I have already referred Papa Jay to a handful of people and if I EVER need an attorney for anything else (within his line of work) I will definitely be contacting Mr. Dieye again. Needless to say it was a very pleasant experience and Mr. Dieye is super nice.
