If you are thinking about getting a divorce in 2021, there is no getting around the fact that you will need to familiarize yourself with Texas’ divorce laws. While you do not need to understand all of the intricacies of Texas’ divorce laws in detail, you do need to have at least a basic understanding of the fundamental principles that will govern both the process and the outcome of your divorce.
