Resources

Since 1986, Trey Yates, a board-certified family law attorney by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, has guided women through the trials and tribulations of divorce. He created The Guide to Good Divorce℠  program to empower women with the resources they need to make informed decisions during the divorce process.

At the heart of The Guide to Good Divorce℠  is information and guidance from uniquely qualified experts on Texas divorce laws, divorce financial planning, life skills, and wellness. We also encourage women going through divorce to explore opportunities to network with other women who are experiencing similar challenges.

However, not everyone is comfortable discussing such a sensitive topic with others, even if they are going through a similar situation. That’s why we created this page on our website to serve as a resource for those seeking divorce help but may not feel comfortable sharing in a divorce support group right away. That way, you can still go through divorce proceedings with the support and knowledge necessary to overcome this difficult challenge stronger than ever before.

We’ve strived to compile a thorough list of resources written by us and other experts that can answer any question you may have about going through a divorce. From the first step of learning how to file for divorce in Texas to when the divorce is finalized, our resources cover a variety of topics that may pertain to your situation, including the following:

• Divorce Planning
• Hiring a Divorce Lawyer
• Dividing Real Estate, Retirement Accounts, Marital Property, & Debts
• Domestic Violence
• Texas Divorce Laws
• Handling Social Media During a Divorce
• Court Orders
• Health Insurance
• Court Hearing’s 60-Day Waiting Period in Texas
• Custody Arrangements & Paying Child Support
