Texas and Community Property Law
Texas law treats all assets acquired during a marriage as community property, meaning they are owned jointly by both spouses, regardless of who earned or paid for them. This principle ensures an equal division of assets upon divorce. However, exceptions exist, such as prenuptial or postnuptial agreements that can dictate a different distribution of certain assets. Ham Law’s expertise in property division law, led by our skilled Property Division Attorneys, ensures that your assets are handled judiciously, respecting any pre-existing agreements and the nuances of Texas law.

How does Texas law determine what is considered community property versus separate property in a divorce?
In Texas, all assets acquired during the marriage are generally considered community property and are subject to equal division upon divorce. Separate property includes assets owned before the marriage, gifts, inheritances, and certain personal injury awards received by one spouse. The distinction between community and separate property is crucial for property division, and Ham Law’s experienced attorneys can help identify and categorize assets accordingly to ensure a fair division.
Can a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement affect the division of property in a divorce?
Yes, both prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can significantly impact how property is divided in a divorce. These agreements can specify which assets are considered separate property and how community property should be divided. If you have such an agreement, Ham Law can help ensure that it is enforced properly during your divorce proceedings, protecting your interests and ensuring the agreement’s terms are respected.
What happens if my spouse and I can't agree on how to divide our property?
If you and your spouse cannot reach an agreement on property division, the case may go to court, where a judge will decide based on Texas community property laws and the specifics of your case. Ham Law strives to reach amicable settlements through negotiation or mediation to avoid the uncertainty of court decisions. However, if litigation becomes necessary, our skilled attorneys are prepared to represent your interests vigorously, ensuring a fair division of assets.
