What You Need to Know About Divorce in Texas
Texas divorce law operates under specific frameworks that affect how your case proceeds and what outcomes you can expect.
No-Fault Makes Filing Simpler
Texas allows no-fault divorce, meaning you don’t need to prove your spouse did anything wrong. Simply stating the marriage has been “insupportably broken” with no reasonable expectation of reconciliation provides sufficient grounds. This approach lets you focus on practical matters like asset division and support rather than assigning blame.
Residency Requirements Matter
Before filing in Dallas County, either you or your spouse must have lived in Texas for at least six months and in Dallas County for at least 90 days. These residency requirements determine where you can file and which court has jurisdiction over your case.
Community Property Changes Everything
Texas is one of nine community property states, treating marriage as an economic partnership. Anything acquired during your marriage (income, property, retirement accounts, even debt) belongs to both spouses equally, regardless of whose name appears on documents. Courts divide assets based on what’s “just and right” rather than automatic 50/50 splits, considering factors like earning capacity, contributions to the marriage, and children’s needs.
Understanding these fundamentals helps you approach divorce strategically rather than reactively.
When Spousal Support Becomes Your Bridge to Independence
Spousal maintenance (Texas’s term for alimony) can make the difference between financial struggle and strategic independence, but to qualify, you must meet specific legal standards.
Who Qualifies for Spousal Support
Texas sets narrow eligibility requirements. Your marriage must have lasted at least 10 years, and you must lack sufficient property to meet minimum reasonable needs. Alternative pathways exist for special situations involving family violence, disability, or caring for a disabled child.
How Courts Calculate Support
When you qualify, courts consider your earning capacity, education, employment history, time out of the workforce, and contributions to your spouse’s career. If you paused your career to raise children while your spouse advanced professionally, those sacrifices carry weight. Texas caps support at $5,000 monthly or 20% of the paying spouse’s gross income, with duration limits based on marriage length:
- 10 to 20 years: Up to 5 years of support
- 20 to 30 years: Up to 7 years of support
- 30+ years: Up to 10 years of support
These limitations make strategy essential. Our knowledgeable Dallas County women’s divorce attorneys structure settlements that maximize your support while addressing long-term financial security.
