Coverage: Accepting cases across Texas. DFW Metroplex counties (Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, Collin) — no travel fee. Counties outside DFW: $150/hr travel time from DFW Airport north. Remote options available.

How it works: Every case starts with Phase 1 — four stages at $500 each. Stage 1 is a full case analysis with background checks on both parties, a complete case brief, and a one-on-one strategy consultation. Stage 2 drafts all pleadings, preliminary hearing script outlines, and requests for financial production (paystubs & tax returns). Stage 3 is filing & service (fees included). Stage 4 is your evidence review session — upload everything you have, and the attorney creates a customized Phase 2 plan of action with flat-rate quotes covering hearing preparation, financial exhibits, courtroom strategy, and more. You pay one stage at a time and can stop or step back to self-representation after any stage.

Pro Se option: Pay for Stages 1 & 2 ($1,000) and receive all attorney-created documents, preliminary hearing scripts, and a strategy session — then represent yourself in court. You may request that the attorney accept full representation at any time — acceptance is at the attorney’s discretion.

Other case types: Adoption, guardianship, modifications, enforcement, and other family law matters follow the same structured approach. Tell us about your situation and we’ll create a custom plan of action tailored to your case.
