Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How long does a divorce take in Austin?
A: The process can take as little as 60 days for an uncontested divorce, but contested cases vary depending on complexity and court schedules. We help set clear expectations from the start.

Q: Is Texas a 50/50 divorce state?
A: Texas is a community property state, meaning assets are divided in a “just and right” manner—not always 50/50. We work to ensure you receive a fair outcome.

Q: Can my spouse refuse to sign the divorce papers?
A: No. Texas allows one party to move forward regardless of the other’s consent. We can help you file and proceed even if your spouse refuses to participate.

Q: Do I have to go to court for divorce in Austin?
A: Not always. Mediation and negotiated settlements are often possible. However, if litigation is necessary, Joe Newberry’s trial experience ensures you’re prepared.
