What Are the Grounds for Divorce in Texas?
One of the major aspects of family law we work on is divorce. Before you officially file, you have to have grounds for divorce as per Texas law, which include the following:
- Insupportability: This is a conflict of personalities that prevents reconciliation.
- Living separately: The court considers this grounds for divorce if you and your spouse have lived apart for at least three years.
- Confinement to a mental hospital: To use this as grounds for divorce, one spouse has to have lived in a mental hospital for at least three years and have little chance of adjustment or a high likelihood of relapse.
- Cruelty: This occurs when one partner willfully causes pain to another, making living together insupportable.
- Abandonment: You may use this as grounds for divorce if your partner left with the intention of abandonment and had been gone for at least one year.
- Conviction of a felony: If one partner was convicted of a felony, you have the grounds for a divorce.
- Adultery: This is grounds for divorce if your partner voluntarily cheats on you with someone else.
During your consultation, we listen to your story to determine if you have grounds for a divorce and the best path forward to have a stress-free, successful legal experience. After establishing grounds, we may help you gather and analyze evidence that proves them to build a strong case. We understand the difficulties of family law matters, so we support you from start to finish and provide consistent communication.
