Facing the tough decision to end your marriage and wondering about your options under Texas law? At Setzer Law Firm, we understand that taking the step towards divorce is never easy, but being informed about your choices can make all the difference. Texas law offers two paths: no-fault and fault divorces, each with its considerations and processes.

No-Fault Divorce offers a way to part amicably without placing blame, focusing on fair resolutions for support and custody. Fault Divorce, on the other hand, involves proving one spouse's wrongful actions, potentially impacting the divorce outcome.

At Setzer Law Firm, we navigate both paths with expertise and compassion. Whether it's filing the correct paperwork, meeting residency requirements, or fighting for your rights, our 30+ years of combined legal experience in family law are at your service.

The reasons from no-fault vs. fault divorce as well as a specific reason such as marital infidelity, feelings of inequality, poor communication, abuse, and addiction all widely vary in their impact on a divorce case and the best way to move forward in filing for divorce.
