Common Law Marriage
Common Law Marriage is sometimes a confusing situation. Although you can have a Common Law Marriage there is no such thing as a Common Law Divorce. Some of the interesting things related to Texas Common Law Marriage include:
- No Time Limit on Common Law Marriage.
- If you Live Together can be considered Common Law Marriage.
- If you “held yourself out” to be married.
- Introduce yourself as husband and wife to other people.
Problems occur if you buy property together like real estate or cars and this property is in the only one person’s name then you might find yourself talking to a divorce attorney and having to get a real divorce.
How Do I Protect Myself Financially

- Always talk to a Family Law Attorney before announcing you are thinking about divorce.
- Find the best approach and the right time to announce your intentions.

Top 4 Divorce Mistakes to Avoid
When considering divorce or already in the midst of one … don’t make these mistakes.
- Making poor decisions out of panic, guilt or greed.
- Not knowing the family’s financial situation (debts and assets).
- Not following the order(s) of the court.

Why keep a Journal?
Keeping a journal or records is a great tool for what is going on in your life and for the judge to see. Your dated records are valuable in counteracting allegations by your spouse.
