FAQ
After a divorce, it's common for one spouse to make payments to the other as part of the divorce agreement. These payments can be alimony, child support or a mix of both.
Misconduct: Certain behaviors can also lead to the disqualification of alimony. For instance, if a spouse is found to have engaged in financial misconduct, such as hiding assets or failing to disclose financial information during the divorce proceedings, this can result in disqualification.
To calculate alimony, the court will divide the paying spouse's annual gross income by 12 to determine their monthly gross income. Then, it will multiply that number by 0.2. If that amount is less than $5,000, that is the monthly amount of alimony you will receive.

While you can attempt to settle child support matters without a lawyer, having legal representation can provide you with peace of mind and increase the likelihood of reaching a fair and satisfactory resolution.
You can also contact the Child Support Division of the Office of the Attorney General (OAG). The OAG will not represent you the way a lawyer would, but they can go to court to get an order for child support, custody, and visitation. You can contact the OAG at (800) 255-8014 or through their website.
On average, child support determinations take about two months from the time the request for support is filed. Once the request is filed with the court, the noncustodial parent to whom the request for child support is directed will be notified about the filing.
Unlike most other states, Texas law limits the amount of spousal maintenance that judges may award. Monthly payments may not exceed $5,000 or 20% of the supporting spouse's average monthly gross income, whichever is less. Monthly gross income includes income from all sources except: Social Security retirement benefits.
