Dedicated Corpus Christi Family Law LawyerIf you are involved in a divorce, a child custody dispute, or any other family law matter, you want to move through this stressful situation as quickly as possible. I will work hard to reach a resolution that is effective, efficient, and cost-conscious. My goal is to help you step past this and move forward with your life. Contact a Corpus Christi lawyer at the Spivey Law Firm at 361-289-6040 to schedule a free initial consultation. Family Law: I am available to stand by your side through any family law matter. I am here to listen to your needs and work hard to meet them. You can rest assured that I will be here when you need me. Divorce: The stress of a divorce can be compounded if it leads to litigation. Litigation can be costly and time-consuming. I can help you pursue that path, or I can work with you to reach an amicable resolution through mediation with your former spouse. This method can save you time and money, while leading to a resolution that is created by you, not the court. Child Custody and Support: On the surface, the options involved in child support and child custody may seem formulaic. To an extent, they are. However, they don't take everything into consideration. I can work to make certain that you receive the support, custody, or visitation arrangement that is right for you. Child Visitation: I can assist with child visitation orders. You have the right to spend time with your child. I will learn about your goals for how much time you would like with your child and fight to meet those goals for you. Divorce Judgment Modifications: Child custody, child visitation, and child support orders are not set in stone. Life changes and these orders can be changed to correspond with those changes. Whether your former spouse has received a salary increase that should be reflected in support payments, you have changed jobs and require different custody arrangements, or any other matter, I can help. Contempt of Court: Court orders pertaining to child support, child visitation, child custody, and other divorce matters are legally binding. When they are not followed, the former spouse who violated them can be held in contempt of court, which has serious repercussions. If you have not received child support, if you have been accused of not allowing the appropriate amount of visitation time, or you are involved in any other matter related to violating the orders, I encourage you to contact me. Adoption: The process of adoption can be difficult to navigate. I can help you move through it efficiently and effectively so you and your child can move forward with your lives. Paternity: I can assist with paternity cases. These cases may involve children born out of wedlock or situations in which someone is accused of an extramarital affair. They can lay the groundwork for receiving or denying a wide range of parental rights, including child custody and child support. Protective Orders: During the process of a divorce, tensions often run high between the two parties. One spouse may feel he or she needs protection from the other. Protection orders, also known as restraining orders, can help serve this purpose. Name Changes: People may want their names changed for a variety of reasons. Many times, it is the result of a divorce. A former wife may want to change back to her maiden name. Children may wish to change their last names to align with the parent they spend more time with. Whatever the case, I can assist. Attorney General Cases: As a Texas family law attorney, I can assist with a wide variety of attorney general cases. I can help you through the process efficiently and effectively. Wills and Trusts: A strong estate plan can ensure that your assets pass down efficiently and effectively to whom you want them to go to. I can create a plan based on your needs that incorporates wills and trusts, durable powers of attorney, advance medical directives, or other tools. Estate Administration and Probate: If you have lost a loved one and are going through the process of probate and estate administration, I can help. I will work hard to ensure that the needs of you and your family are met. Contact me at 361-289-6040 to schedule a free initial consultation with a Texas attorney.
