Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a divorce take in Texas?

An uncontested divorce in Texas can be finalized in as little as 61 days after filing — the mandatory waiting period. Contested divorces involving disputes over property, custody, or support typically take six months to over a year, depending on complexity and court schedules in Collin County.

What factors does a Texas court consider in child custody decisions?

Texas courts base custody — called conservatorship — on the best interest of the child. Judges weigh each parent's relationship with the child, stability of home environment, work schedules, geographic proximity, the child's preferences (if 12 or older), and any history of family violence or substance abuse.

Can a court order be modified after it is finalized?

Yes. Texas allows modification of child custody, child support, and visitation orders when there has been a material and substantial change in circumstances since the original order. Examples include relocation, job loss, remarriage, or a significant change in the child's needs. Lynda Landers handles modifications throughout Collin County.

What is parental alienation and can I take legal action?

Parental alienation occurs when one parent undermines the child's relationship with the other parent — through negative comments, limiting contact, or coaching the child to reject the other parent. Texas courts take these allegations seriously. If documented, alienating behavior can be grounds to modify conservatorship or visitation orders.
