We were forced to have to retain an attorney in the state of Texas for a custody dispute. Randy and Andrea went above and beyond and we were successful! The issue was not only intrastate BUT also complicated and time sensitive. I would recommend them to anyone!

Support in Every Aspect of Your Divorce

                 Property Division

Texas is a community property state. Property owned before marriage or given to you as a gift is considered separate property. Meanwhile, assets acquired during the marriage are presumed to be community property. They will be divided into a "just and right" division, using fair and equitable guidelines. We can review your property to determine its classification.

              Spousal Maintenance

We understand the financial hardships associated with divorce. State law places strict regulations on "spousal maintenance," known as alimony in other states. We represent clients facing either side of the issue — those pursuing alimony and those obligated to pay support. We evaluate every aspect of your unique situation, including Social Security issues, to provide guidance tailored to your needs.

Your Divorce Doesn't Have to Be a Long, Legal Battle

Not all divorces have to be contentious. Rather than having a judge resolve disagreements, couples who divorce amicably can work together and have more control over their divorce. This can be achieved with a collaborative law approach to divorce. 

As a member of the Collaborative Law Institute of Texas, attorney Randy Michel is uniquely qualified to help you and your spouse reach a mutually beneficial agreement that will set you up for future success. 

Child custody, child support, alimony, and other important aspects of your family life can be resolved and finalized using collaborative law.

We recently used Randy Michel in the making of our wills. He and his staff did an excellent job and we would highly recommend him. Randy took the time to explain intricate details necessary for will preparation and responded rapidly to any questions we had. His pricing was better than competitive. This was an educational and pleasant experience.

Child Support Modification Can Improve Your Family's Quality of Life

Years after a divorce, parents may take on new careers and experience a change in income. A child may have ongoing needs that must be met, like daycare or medication for health conditions. As children age, they will likely require more financial support for schooling, educational activities, and health needs. These changes can all justify the need to modify existing child support agreements. 

Mr. Michel can draft robust support modifications on your behalf so child support payments are more in line with your and your child's current needs. Contact our College Station office today if you would like our attorney to review your child support agreement.

We Work With Professionals So You Have All the Facts

When building your family law case, attorney Randy Michel may bring in our own private investigator and forensic accountant. This enables our College Station team to approach your case with facts and help secure a more favorable outcome for you. 

Grandparents Have Rights Too 

After a divorce, some parents may restrict their children from seeing other family members, like grandparents. Under Texas law, a court can authorize grandparents' visitation rights if it's in the best interest of the child. Texas law does not give grandparents absolute visitation rights. 

If a parent is abusive, neglectful, incarcerated, or incompetent, a grandparent can make an argument to the courts that the child may be better off under their care. If you're concerned for the health or safety of your grandchild, our legal team can petition the courts to give you visitation rights or guardianship. Contact us today to see what our College Station law firm can do for you. 

Mr. Michel believes in providing honest, compassionate representation to help your family come to a resolution as quickly and painlessly as possible.
