These couples are also entitled to have fair spousal support and alimony rights, as well as a just division between their items of property.

If you are currently in the process of ending your marriage, or your marriage has just been legally dissolved, you will need a dedicated, knowledgeable same-sex divorce attorney in Austin. Allow our dependable team at Carroll Troberman, PLLC to ensure that your rights are protected no matter what.

Grounds for Divorce in Texas

When it comes to the grounds of divorce in the state of Texas, the law is exactly the same for both straight and same-sex couples. In order to get a divorce, you do not have to prove that any specific situation has occurred. So long as one partner truly believes that the relationship is unsalvageable, then the court agrees that this divorce can legally take place.

In certain situations, there are other “grounds” for divorce which count as being the fault of the other spouse. These grounds include:

Cases of adultery
Utter abandonment for at least a full year
Cruelty and abuse
Being convicted of a felony
Being committed to a mental hospital or institute

How Our Same-Sex Divorce Attorneys Can Help You

We know that divorce is a complicated and often frustrating process. Especially when complexities arise, whether because the divorcing couple shares a child or one former spouse needs alimony, the dispute can become extremely contentious. Fortunately, our attorneys know how to deal carefully even with the tensest of situations.

Some of the services we offer to couples of the same sex include:

Determining visitation and child custody rights – You can rely on us to help fill out the appropriate forms before discussing the arrangements which would be in the best interest of your children. Simultaneously, however, we are ready to defend your own parental rights as well.
Gaining child support and alimony support – In many cases, one parent or spouse may not be able to support themselves and their family. We can help you figure out whether these support cases are appropriate for you to pursue, as well as how much and how often the payment for support will be supplied.
Property division – When it comes to property division, you can count on us to help you accurately divide the assets and debts from your marriage.

"All of us have been fortunate that she was on our side and I highly recommend her for any legal services."
Trusting someone with your life is an incredibly difficult choice and one we never want to have to make but Shelly and her team have helped me through some of these stressful situations. I used several different lawyers before finding her and was less than impressed with all of them. When I contracted her to help me with my second DWI, I found out quickly how a highly competent lawyer handles the courtroom. I have since worked with her on several cases and I have recommended her to many of my friends and family. All of us have been fortunate that she was on our side and I highly recommend her for any legal services.
