🏠 When filing for divorce in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, one of the most common misconceptions we hear is that everything is automatically split 50/50.

Texas is a community property state, but the law actually requires a "just and right" division of assets. This means a judge has the discretion to divide property in a way they deem fair, which can result in a 55/45 or 60/40 split depending on the specific facts of your case.

Read our foundational guide to understand how Texas courts classify assets and what you can do to ensure your separate property remains yours:

📉 Did you know that a standard divorce decree is often not enough to actually transfer retirement funds?

To divide a 401(k), 403(b), or traditional pension without triggering massive IRS taxes or early withdrawal penalties, you need a highly specific legal document called a QDRO (Qualified Domestic Relations Order).

Missing plan-specific rules or failing to address survivor benefits can be an incredibly costly error. Read our new guide to see how we help clients secure their retirement assets during a Texas divorce.

💙 Your child's financial future matters — and so does getting child support right from the start.

Child support in Texas is more than just a number. It's calculated based on income, taxes, health expenses, and your child's specific needs. And if those circumstances change, the order can — and should — change too.

At Clark Law Group, our Dallas child support attorneys help parents on both sides of this process:

✅ Establishing fair initial support orders
✅ Enforcing orders when payments aren't being made
✅ Modifying orders when income or life situations change
✅ Protecting your rights if public assistance is involved
✅ Addressing support for children with special needs

Getting it right at the beginning means fewer trips back to court — and more stability for your child.

Attorney Stephen Clark and our team are here 7 days a week to answer your questions and guide you through the process.

Going through a divorce in Texas? Your retirement account may be on the table — but probably not ALL of it.

This is one of the biggest surprises people face during divorce. They've spent decades building up a 401(k), pension, or IRA — and suddenly they're wondering how much of it belongs to their spouse.

The answer depends on more than most people realize:

✅ Texas does NOT require a 50/50 split — courts use a "just and right" standard
✅ Only contributions made DURING the marriage are community property
✅ Pre-marital retirement savings can be protected as separate property
✅ The TYPE of account (401k, IRA, pension) determines HOW it's divided
✅ A QDRO is required to divide most employer plans — without it, serious problems can follow

Attorney Stephen Clark just published a detailed guide breaking all of this down in plain English — including the tax consequences most people never consider.
