Divorce is a complex process affecting many aspects of your life including financial, parental, emotional, and more.

A premarital agreement or a prenuptial agreement is a legal contract that details the individual assets of an engaged couple prior to their marriage and specifies the property rights of the partners in the event of a divorce or death. Having a well-drafted prenuptial agreement in place can help protect your assets in the unfortunate case of a dissolution of the marriage.
Collaborative practice is an alternative way to settle disputes outside of court with the help of a team of experienced attorneys, mental health experts, and financial professionals who work together to find options that will serve the interests of both the parties and any other affected persons. If you have decided to take the collaborative way to resolve your legal issues, you'll need a trained and dependable legal expert to represent you.
There's nothing more unacceptable than your former spouse or your child's other parent not following a court order. Whether the order directs the opposite party to pay child support, allow for visitation, or any other decree related to your divorce or separation, it's mandatory to comply with the court order.

He drew out my custody battle over a year and a half, charged me more money than I care to mention I was swindled for, and then, after all that, he forgot to put in the order to change my last name back. I had to go through the process to get my name changed as well as deal with him not being in the office on a regular basis because he was in Dallas.
Update: Now, this lawyer chose to put my personal court information on a google review in an unflattering light instead of reaching out to me personally because he didn't like my post. It was

Will recently provided legal counsel to both my business parter and multiple personal friends. Will represented my referrals with the highest level of professionalism, and his vigilant advocacy secured the desired result in each matter.
The positive feedback that I received from my friends and colleagues focussed on Will's drive to represent them in a thoughtful, timely, and cost conscious manner.
Will's commitment to serving both the needs of his clients and the Tyler community, in general, is to be lauded!

Will Shelton is the finest person and attorney I have ever met. He was available at a moments notice and was able to be successful with our legal issue when others could not.
I would highly recommend him

I only had one phone call with Will, but that was enough to know if I will most definitely hire him if my situation continues. He was thorough and personable. He was also patient and kind.

Shelton Family Law provided the best family law services I could imagine. They were very diligent, informative, attentive, and comforting to every need and question I had. They were there for me, every step of the way, through my custody case. If you are looking for a very professional law firm that can provide upstanding service, look no further. I couldn’t be happier with William and his staff. All around great business, people and culture.

If you have something to lose, you want to retain Will Shelton...I would have nothing today had I not hired him back in 2008 on the recommendation of a friend..my attorney at that time was just not up to the task of presenting my side successful against a vicious foe on the other side...he wanted to cave and throw me under...thank God I called Will Shelton..

Ladies should not retain him! Felt he was siding on the opposite side and felt he didn't put up any fight for me but sat there and watched and take money not earned.
