Domestic Partnerships

Frisco, Texas, Domestic Partnership Lawyers

Although Texas does not yet provide specific marital rights to same sex partners, we understand that many of the same issues apply to domestic partners that apply to married couples. If dissolution of the domestic partnership occurs, property and assets are still need to be divided, and parenting issues must be handled in the best interests of the children.

Contact our offices in Frisco, Texas, to schedule a consultation with one of our attorneys to discuss your domestic partnership breakup or contract needs.

We represent clients in the following matters related to domestic partnerships:

• Breach of partnership agreements
• Mediated property settlements
• Negotiated child custody and visitation rights

We provide comprehensive family law services to all families. Unfortunately, Texas law does not recognize all families equally.
