Divorces in Wimberley and western Hays County often involve more than a house and two cars. Acreage, rental properties, family land, small businesses and retirement savings can all be part of the estate. Getting the property division right takes careful work, and so does protecting your relationship with your children.
Attorney Jesus R. Lopez represents Wimberley residents in divorce, custody and support cases. Wimberley divorces are generally filed in Hays County and heard at the Hays County Government Center in San Marcos.
Property issues in a Wimberley divorce
Texas is a community property state. Property acquired during the marriage is presumed to be community property and is divided in a way that is just and right. Property owned before the marriage, or received by gift or inheritance, such as family land, is generally separate property, but you have to prove it with clear and convincing evidence. Records matter. Learn more about property division in a Texas divorce.
