Divorce
Our family and divorce lawyers practice only family and divorce law. Put our award-winning team to work for you!
Child Support
At Adams Law Firm, we stand ready to provide our clients with outstanding representation and assist them in achieving the child support or custody arrangement that favors their situation. You have enough to worry about when going through a divorce, so it is important that you retain the legal counsel of a trusted Katy child support and custody law attorney as soon as possible.
Child Custody and Visitation
When one parent receives primary child custody (meaning that parent has the right to have the child the majority of the time), the other parent is typically granted visitation rights. The parent who has visitation will spend a limited amount of time with the child each month, such as every other weekend.
Adoption
International Adoption – Rules for international adoption are specific to the country from which you are adopting. Both the country of origin and the state of Texas must finalize the adoption. There are essential steps to take to ensure that your adoption is official and that you have the necessary paperwork to transport your child to the United States. A petition for U.S. citizenship for the child is also required.
Paternity
Establishing paternity in an involuntary manner is not the usual method and therefore comes with a number of challenges to navigate. The varying circumstances that led to an involuntary establishment of paternity play a role in what makes it difficult to obtain. Involuntary establishment usually requires an appearance in court before it’s decided.
Premarital Agreement
As the wedding bells prepare to ring and your big day draws near, it is important you think of your future between you and your soon-to-be spouse. What happens if things do not work out the way you had planned? While nobody ever wants to think of the subject, the truth of the matter is that divorce is a very real possibility and can cause considerable difficulty later on if the terms of your separation have not already been established. Through the creation of a prenuptial agreement, you and your spouse can help to eliminate your worries and prepare for potential conflict before it should even begin.
Guardianship
Spouses and their children are not the only ones affected by the emotional process of divorce. Friends and family members can suffer the effects as well, especially when their relationships with the children involved are jeopardized by bitter parents. Grandparents are often cut off from their grandchildren by the custodial parent due to anger or bitterness. If you are the victim of such behavior, you have the right to approach the court and request grandparents’ rights for visitation or, under certain circumstances, to custody or guardianship of the child.
Spousal Support
The divorce process is an emotional and difficult time. On your wedding day, as you said, “I do,” you likely did not have a divorce in mind. It is an unfortunate fact of life that divorce is sometimes the only option left in a marriage. Divorce is not only tough in that it leaves you without your partner, but it also may leave you in a difficult financial situation. If you find yourself in a situation where you are wondering how you will be able to take care of your needs after a divorce, contact Adams Law Firm to see if you have grounds to seek spousal support.
Child Abuse
Have your children been taken by the Texas Department of Family and Children’s Services ? Our team at the Adams Law Firm could help. We have over 35 years of experience in handling these types of cases and will do everything in our power to help protect your children and your family. The Texas Child Protective Services (CPS) is responsible for investigating possible cases of child abuse or child neglect throughout the state. They are also responsible for placing children in foster care and placing them in adoptive homes.

Misdemeanors
Almost anyone with a concern regarding a child’s safety and welfare may file a complaint with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. Technically, in the state of Texas, anyone that suspects the abuse or neglect of a child must report their suspicions. As long as the complaint is made in good faith, the reporter is shielded from civil and criminal liability. This rule holds as long as the reporter is not the one engaging in the abuse or making a false report against another person. Failing to report suspected abuse is a criminal offense and considered a Class A misdemeanor.
Restraining Order
Regaining safety for you or your loved one who has suffered from domestic violence is undoubtedly your primary concern. You likely will not feel safe until the alleged abuser is no longer near you or living with you. Obtaining an order of protection or restraining order is your best course of action. These orders may not deter your abuser from attempting to stalk or hurt you. However, by having these orders in place, you can feel empowered to call the police and have the abuser arrested for any violation of the order. This can include being too close to you, trying to communicate directly or indirectly with you, and other violations.
Kidnapping
Grandparents’ visitation rights are primarily based on state law, but federal legislation can also influence how grandparents’ visitation rights are enforced. In 1980, the United States Congress passed the Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act, which required that every state give full faith and enforce grandparents’ visitation orders from any other state court.

Severance Agreement
Gross income is the pre-tax amount of the spouse’s wages and salary. It also includes things like net rental income in cases where the spouse ordered to pay owns rental property. Dividends from stock options are also counted as part of the spouse’s income. Other potential income sources include; retirement benefits, annuities, unemployment benefits, royalty income, trust income, severance pay, capital gains, and the monetary value of gifts and prizes.

Personal Injury
Marital property is considered to be jointly owned by both spouses, unless the property was acquired before the marriage, as the result of a third-party gift, through will or intestate succession, or as compensation for personal injury.

Trusts and Estates

Wills
“As a family having to probate a loved ones Last Will and Testament, we highly recommend Beth Rowatt. Her professional knowledge and concern for us is greatly appreciated. She made the process of probate very easy for us. She listened and was concerned while she handled everything in the upmost professional way.”
