Family Law

• Divorce
• Child Support
  A subset of SAPCRs is parentage suits. Upon parentage being established, the SAPCR action can proceed – conservatorship, visitation, access, and child support payments will be established. If you need a Burleson SAPCR lawyer (working in both Johnson and Tarrant Counties), please contact the Stanley Law Office.
• Child Custody and Visitation
  At The Stanley Law Office in Burleson, Texas you can expect solid representation both in the mediation room and in the courtroom. This is important because many judges will require mediation to take place prior to any trial. This can be quite beneficial to many individuals and we often recommend mediation as an avenue for reaching agreements involving child custody, support, marital property division and other central issues.
• Spousal Support
  There are other provisions in an order that can be modified. If you have questions regarding whether or not a provision in a prior order can be modified contact the Stanley Law Office today. For example, if a prior court order ordered that one spouse make some type of payment to the other (as some form of spousal maintenance) that can sometimes be reduced, depending on the order, if a party's circumstances have changed. Attorneys analyze each situation while considering all the various factors, which is a reason to contact an experienced family law attorney to discuss your case.
