Our goal is to help you move forward with confidence while protecting what matters most.
In Texas, divorces generally fall into two categories: uncontested divorce and contested divorce. An uncontested divorce occurs when both spouses are able to reach an agreement on all major issues, including property division, child custody, visitation, child support, and any spousal maintenance obligations. Because there are no significant disputes to resolve, uncontested divorces are often less stressful, more cost-effective, and finalized more quickly.
A contested divorce, on the other hand, arises when spouses disagree on one or more important issues. Common disputes involve child custody arrangements, division of marital assets and debts, business ownership interests, spousal support, or other financial matters. While many contested divorces can ultimately be resolved through negotiation or mediation, some require court intervention to reach a final resolution.
At Wurtz Law Firm, PLLC, Attorney Michael C. Wurtz helps clients navigate both contested and uncontested divorces throughout Arlington, Tarrant County, and surrounding North Texas communities, providing practical guidance and strong advocacy every step of the way.
We review your situation, answer your questions, and discuss potential legal strategies.
One spouse files a Petition for Divorce with the appropriate Texas court.
When necessary, the court may issue temporary orders regarding custody, support, property use, and other important matters while the case is pending.
The parties exchange information, evaluate assets and liabilities, and attempt to reach settlement agreements.
Many Texas courts require mediation before trial. Successful mediation can often resolve disputes without lengthy litigation.
If an agreement is reached, the divorce can be finalized through a negotiated settlement. If disputes remain, the case may proceed to trial where the court will decide unresolved issues.
Texas law requires a minimum 60-day waiting period after filing before a divorce can be finalized. However, contested cases may take several months or longer depending on the complexity of the issues involved.
Not always. Many divorces are resolved through negotiation and mediation without a contested trial. However, court appearances may still be necessary depending on the circumstances.
Yes. Under certain circumstances, Texas courts may modify existing custody or support orders when a substantial change in circumstances has occurred.
Texas does not require both spouses to agree to a divorce. If one spouse wishes to end the marriage, the divorce can generally proceed through the court process.
