My questions were heard and answered without having to ask twice.
“Value a capable team with experienced staff. For the past 9 months, the folks at the Law Offices of Mark Childress handled my case with class and empathy. My questions were heard and answered without having to ask twice. I felt like I was kept in the loop and always briefed properly. As I move forward with other ventures I wouldn't be surprised if we crossed paths again. And hats off to Konner, THANK YOU!”
Mark was there to answer every question, every phone call and did it in a way that I felt as if I were his only client.
“I needed an attorney who would stand up for me and my child during a very hard time. Mark was there to answer every question, every phone call and did it in a way that I felt as if I were his only client. He was very knowledgeable not only about the law but about the opposing attorney and the judge. He prepared me well and we won our case. I would recommend Mark Childress to anyone who is fighting for custody or in need of child support.”
I highly recommend him and his staff. They are courteous, prompt and they care.
“I called in inquiring about a divorce and how it all happens. I had 2 people call me back within an hour and in an hour maybe 2 I was talking with the lawyer. I highly recommend him and his staff. They are courteous, prompt and they care. Divorce is the hardest thing we will go through minus losing a kid and his team will be retained. He even called me back himself the next day to see how I was. Great service.”
This guy is amazing. In a matter of minutes, he accomplished what no other attorney could in 6 years.
“This guy is amazing. In a matter of minutes, he accomplished what no other attorney could in 6 years. He had my case figured out in 1short conversation and had what he called "a convoluted mess" fixed. I'm pretty sure my ex felt like he'd been hit by a bus. My family is finally in tact and everyone is finally happy.”

Is a Lawyer Required for Divorce?

In Texas, legal representation is not required when filing for divorce. However, retaining our divorce attorneys in Fort Worth can bring tremendous value. Here are several reasons as to why you should hire a lawyer for your divorce case:

Fear of abuse: divorce on its own is emotionally challenging, but when you are in fear of your own safety, it makes matters worse. Domestic violence is not uncommon and can occur more often if divorce is inevitable. Our legal specialists can help you and your children divorce safely without worry of retaliation.
Hidden assets: If you feel that your spouse is hiding assets, they can be uncovered during the discovery phase with the help of our Fort Worth divorce attorneys. Couples with high-net worth often see this incident come into play.
Children: child custody cases can become contentious quickly. During these cases, your parental rights are often at risk. Don’t lose custody or visitation rights by not hiring an attorney. We have the extensive experience that you will need to achieve your desired goals.
Guidance: the laws in Texas aren’t always crystal clear. Many people get lost in translation when attempting divorce on their own. You will need a divorce lawyer that understands the intricacies of the law and how they relate to your specific issues.

If your spouse has hired an attorney, you will want to do the same. Even if you are in agreement with your spouse, that is not to say that his or her lawyer will be ethical. Protect your best interests and your future by calling the Law Office Of Mark M. Childress today.
