Practice Areas
Practice Areas Description
- Asset and Debt DivisionWhen you face divorce, you need the assistance of a family law lawyer who can protect your property rights at each step in the divorce law process. At Nichols Law, PLLC, our Houston marital assets and debts attorneys have the experience needed to represent your property interests during a divorce. We are adept at identifying ways to optimize the assets you retain and to reduce the debt you are responsible for. Additionally, with our extensive trial experience, we are always willing to take a case to trial if the situation warrants it.
- Child Custody and Support
When you wish to establish or modify a child custody, child support or spousal maintenance agreement, you must complete confusing and complex legal processes. In addition to filing pleadings and motions and attending hearings, you must build a strong and persuasive case, and then present it to parties that may include judges, mediators and opposing counsel. When you need to accomplish support and custody goals, contact Nichols Law, PLLC, for experienced and qualified legal assistance. Our Houston child custody and support attorneys include a certified Texas family law specialist, a CPA and an attorney who has represented Children's Legal Services.
- Divorce
Divorce cases are often complex and emotionally charged. Even with an uncontested divorce, disagreements often arise when dealing with issues like parenting plans and property divisions. At Nichols Law, PLLC, we understand the difficulties and challenges in divorce and family law cases. That is why we provide every client with the knowledge, communication and dedication they deserve. At Nichols Law, our Houston divorce attorneys will stand up for you and help you achieve favorable results.
- Enforcement and Modification
When you wish to modify an existing divorce decree or need assistance in enforcing a decree, turn to the Houston enforcement and modification attorneys of Nichols Law, PLLC. We have decades of experience in modifying and enforcing a broad range of decrees relating to family law such as child custody, spousal support, child support and child visitation decrees.
- Adoption
Adopting a child can be one of the most rewarding experiences a person can have. However, the adoption process can also be frustrating and overwhelming. With decades of experience, our Houston family lawyers can sensitively guide you through the adoption process and can think outside the box if the case proves challenging. In Texas, many adoptions are made by stepparents. Stepparent adoptions require a slightly different process, beginning with termination of parental rights of the biological parent who does not have custody. If the biological parent cannot easily be located, we can work hard to serve the parent papers about the impending adoption.
- Grandparents' Rights
Sometimes, when a family experiences a major change, such as a divorce, grandparents get lost in the shuffle. Soon after the divorce or other matter is finalized, grandparents find themselves unable to see their grandchildren; unable to foster that close bond that they find so valuable and important. At Nichols Law, P.L.L.C., our experienced family law attorneys lend our reputation and experience to fighting for grandparents' rights to see their grandchildren. In Texas, where most of our work is done, grandparents can petition for visitation if there is any disruption to the conventional family unit, including not only divorce, but also adoption, the death of a parent, or the termination of parental rights.
- Paternity
Paternity suits attempt to establish the parentage of a child. However, the reasons and circumstances surrounding paternity suits are far from simple. The Houston family lawyers of Nichols Law have the experience and skill to take on any paternity action, not only in our home state of Texas, but around the world. We represent people elsewhere in the United States and overseas.
- Protective Orders
No one should ever have to live in fear of an assault or family violence. If your spouse has physically assaulted you or your children, or you are being threatened by someone, you may need legal protection from the person. You definitely need to consult with a compassionate, skilled attorney. The court can issue a protective order on your behalf. A protective order prevents the person from coming into your home, your workplace, or anywhere near you or your children. A protective order can also stop your child from being taken away, stop a dangerous person from owning a gun, or stop anything else that can threaten you.
- Stepparent Adoption
Successfully adopting a child can be challenging, especially when one of the child's parents is unwilling to let go of his or her parental rights. The Houston area step parent adoption attorneys at Nichols Law, PLLC, can provide the guidance and hands-on legal assistance adopting parents need. We can provide qualified legal help at both steps. If a biological parent wishes to halt the adoption process, we can investigate the factors that the judge will consider.
