Education & Case Preparation

Family Law and civil court can be a difficult experience for all people involved but a high conflict custody battle seriously injures children. These pages and their listed resources touch upon different aspects of your legal case. Free information on how to file a complaint with Texas state professional licensing boards, regarding their court appointed roles on family law cases. Free legal & court approved forms are also available under the Texas Resources tab.  We highly suggest mediation vs litigation in order to cut down on the amount of trauma & legal abuse that may occur and to keep money in your own pocket.
There is also limited accountability within the industry itself, outside of complaints to their respective boards which to date the Dept of Health & Human Services is back logged with approximately 2000 open investigations of complaints with a 2/3 year wait time, as of Feb 2017.
