Alimony/Spousal Support

As a result of divorce, half of all families experience poverty. As part of a divorce agreement, a couple may decide, or a court may require, a higher-earning spouse to continue supporting a lower-income- or non-income-earning partner for a period of time (or in some rare cases, permanently).

These payments, oftentimes referred to as alimony, spousal support or spousal maintenance, can vary in terms of not only the amount, but the timing and manner in which they are paid.

Support payments can be a particularly thorny topic to discuss, and can lead to very painful and vulnerable conversations, which may or may not be productive to reaching a resolution. If the issue is resolved but the emotions are not, the resentment, hurt, anger and vulnerability brought up during the divorce process can undermine not only agreed terms of the Mediated Settlement Agreement, but the future relationship and happiness of not only both partners, but also their children.

We have experience navigating these landmines, and want to help couples come to a mutually-beneficial agreement that, mostly importantly, ensures the children’s needs are being met and happiness for their family.

Benefits of the Affordable Divorce Texas Method

$998

For less than the retainer for a divorce litigator, we put your family’s well-being above all else and can help you achieve the best divorce at an affordable price.

Fast

Courts are overwhelmed, and contested divorces can take a year or more. In contrast, by utilizing the Affordable Divorce process, we can help you resolve the issues a judge would otherwise decide in a fraction of the time. We can help you divorce quickly, and be ready to finalize your divorce as soon as the 60-day waiting period has expired.

Flat Fee

Instead of worrying about the constant stream of lawyer’s bills, we take the anxiety out of the cost of divorce. We provide you with a one-time, flat fee that includes everything you need to successfully divorce based on our transparent fixed pricing.

Free Consult

We offer a free, no obligation initial consultation during which a licensed Texas attorney and mediator will explain the Affordable Divorce process, as well as answer your questions and help you understand all your options.

Control

The conventional method of divorcing robs couples of control over their own families and finances, transferring power over to their attorneys and strangers who will determine what is in their family’s “best interests”. We believe you know what is best for you and your children and empower couples to make those decisions.

Less Stress

Not only is the Affordable Divorce method designed to help couples divorce faster and for less money, but perhaps most importantly, it leaves families healthier and happier, in a better emotional, psychological and financial position to move on.

A New Life

It may be hard to imagine now, but life will go on, and you deserve to start the next chapter as whole- mentally and financially- as possible. You are deserving and capable of happiness, and we want to help you achieve your best life.

Family First

Divorce can be traumatic for children, and we consciously work to minimize any negative impact. While parents divorce, families do not, and we want to create a framework for families to evolve, with the needs of children guiding all decisions.

Expert Guidance

Divorce is a big change. For most people, it is a defining moment in their lives, and even more so for children. That is why you need a team that is skilled at managing the transition and whose singular goal is to lay the groundwork for a successful next chapter in your family’s life.

No Shame

Divorce can be intensely intimate, leaving people vulnerable psychologically, emotionally and financially. We promise not only privacy and confidentiality, but also a safe space free from shaming or judgment.

Custom (Re)solutions

Your family is unique. But judges don’t have the time to learn your family’s story, and most divorce lawyers are not accustomed to creative custody arrangements or planning for your financial health. With diverse backgrounds and experiences, we are uniquely qualified to empower families to come up with their own solutions for their future happiness.

Confidential

The Affordable Divorce method is a private, confidential process that protects you and your family’s privacy, offering a means to secure valuable personal information and keep it out of the public record.
