I am Leigh Ann Schenk. I am a licensed attorney and mediator in the state of Texas. I was raised on a working horse and cattle ranch and believe in the principles of hard work and strong family ethics. I come from a family of lawyers and work primarily in Fort Worth and Dallas area. I know that there are many Family law attorneys to choose from but if you want a lawyer that will represent you with honesty, candor, and fairness, I am your lawyer.
Family law can be a delicate and different area to work through. If you are in need of an attorney who handles family law in Arlington, Tarrant County and the surrounding DFW area, you have come to the right place by contacting Schenk Law. Child custody issues, Child Protective Services and child support are all areas where you might need a family law attorney like Leigh Ann Schenk.
Going through a divorce can be a sad, frustrating and stressful time, especially for men. There's a lot of confusing laws that vary by state. You may not be sure how you'll come out of this case financially. If there are kids involved, things are even more complicated. That's why you must learn as much about divorce as you can so you can try to get what you want out of it.
If you and your spouse are considering filing for divorce and have children, one of your biggest fears may be losing custody of your child. Custody battles frequently splinter parents, each of whom may feel like they are simply looking out for the best interests of their child. To address complex child custody issues, Texas adopted legislation that required Joint Managing Conservatorship.
How do you know if you need to modify and can you? Well first of all if it has not been 3 years since the Judge signed the current order you and the other parent are operating under, you will need a material and substantial change involving a parent or a child. The parent paying child support has a new job or has lost their job or perhaps has received a substantial raise.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
Leigh Ann Schenk is an amazing Family law attorney. She will fight hard for your children. We used her in 2015 and she fought for us when no one else would. When I say no one else I mean no one else we went through 2 other attorneys before we found her. She is the best in the business in my opinion.

Ms. Schenk is very professional. She means business in the court room. She really advocated for me and my child. She truly wants the best for the children. My case was complex with many factors to consider. Ms. Schenk is very responsive and really took the time to listen to the facts of my case. She then talked to me about the plan of action and followed through the entire way. She helped me ensure my child would be protected, even when we faced opposition. She suggested a contested trial and we won, but she continued to advocate for my child and I until the closure of my case.

I was desperate and hired her gave her $3000 up front was late to our on and only court hearing kept talking about needing surgery and business was slow and how clients hire her and she never hears from them again...sends crazy test messages then demands another $1800 a few weeks later . I told her I just paid her $3000 and all she did was go to court once and did nothing and sent in 2 forms....she sends a rude email saying I dont work well when im not paid! I was like really????? So i sent her the $1800 then a week later she is demanding more money!!!! Needless to say after consulting with another

Mrs. Schenk was a God send for me in a dark time. My case was not easy and exceptionally complicated at times. She was very patient with me and my case through a very long process, but fought for me every step of the way. In the end she helped me win custody of my 3 year old daughter, and in the state of Texas that isn’t common! I’m grateful for everything she has done for my little girl and I!!! I would highly recommend her to anyone!

There was a horrible scam that caused me to miss a huge $2500 payment to Leigh-Ann! She was not only understanding but assisted me in action to take as well as advice if I hit road blocks. Even after the scam so close to my court appearance she did not hesitate to tell me she will be there for me still and showed up just as phenomenal as the other appearances where she was already paid.
You can imagine how amazingly hard she fought for me in court just by that scenario alone.
Every time we went to court during my newborn visitation battle with my child’s father she did what was right for our

Big Win in court today with Mrs.Shenk my case is very complex as substance abuse was involved. It has been a long tough journey I have had several lawyers, but I finally found Mrs. Shenk she guided me in the right direction was straight forward with what options were laid out no matter how I didn’t like the options still she remained honest in what they were she has been there when I needed her sometimes just to vent my frustrations. She is for your child’s best interest. I couldn’t have picked a better attorney she is professional in court all the while fighting for her client’s best interest

My experience with Ms Schenk was absolutely wonderful considering the circumstances that I was going through. She proved to be a tough negotiator and became a nemesis for my ex. She handle everything very well and I was not left financially strapped. I hope to never need an attorney again, but if I will definitely call Ms Schenk.
