Southeast Texas Marital Asset Division Attorneys

Texas is a community property state, which means that any property that was acquired during the marriage is presumptively assumed to be subject to division during a divorce. However, even property that was purchased before the marriage can be subject to community claims, and property acquired during marriage may be characterized, in whole or in part, as separate property, depending upon the facts surrounding its acquisition.

• Division of real estate
• Inheritances and trusts
