Family law matters can be incredibly personal. Whether you’re going through a divorce, navigating a custody dispute, or facing post-divorce issues, the outcome can reshape your life and affect your family’s future. These cases deserve serious attention and legal support tailored to your needs.

At WSM, we exclusively represent women in family law matters by providing honest guidance, smart strategy, and a strong voice when it counts. From initial filing to final orders, we focus on what matters most to you.

Family Law Issues We Handle

Whether the case is contested or not, we help clients protect their parental rights, property, and peace of mind.

Child Support and Enforcement

Whether you’re seeking child support or facing unpaid obligations, the Austin family law attorneys at WSM can ensure your child support orders are fair, enforceable, and focused on your child’s well-being.

Post-Divorce Modifications

Life changes, and sometimes, your custody or support order should, too. When custody, support, or visitation needs to change, we help you pursue or challenge post-decree modifications through the courts.

Protection Orders and Domestic Issues

Women can become the target of abuse or even violence during a divorce. If you’re dealing with domestic violence or being served with a protective order, our attorneys can move quickly to protect your safety and your rights.

Why Women Choose WSM for Family Law

At WSM, we solely represent women because we understand the unique challenges they face in family court. That focus allows us to build strategies that reflect what our clients actually need
during one of the most stressful times in life.

Whether you’re facing a high-conflict divorce, fighting for custody, or trying to hold an ex accountable for unpaid support, we’re here to help you stand your ground.

Our Austin family law team brings knowledge, preparation, and unwavering commitment to every case. You won’t be left guessing about your options or wondering what comes next. You’ll have clear answers, steady communication, and the full support of a legal team that puts your priorities first.

If you’re searching for an Austin family lawyer for women who will fight for you and what matters most, we would be honored to provide legal guidance and a listening ear as you navigate the family court process.

Custody and Financial Security in Family Law

Women often go into family court worried about their parental rights and financial security. During marriage, they carry a disproportionate portion of the emotional weight and child-rearing roles in a family.

That’s why child custody and financial support are two of the most critical parts of any family law case. At WSM, we help our clients pursue outcomes that protect both their rights as mothers and their long-term security.

Texas courts are required to base custody decisions on the child’s best interests, but the outcome doesn’t always reflect what’s truly best for the child. We help our clients prepare strong cases, backed by evidence, that reflect the day-to-day realities of parenting.

We also work to uncover hidden income, enforce fair support orders, and make sure you don’t walk away from a divorce or custody fight with less than you’re owed. With help from an experienced Austin family attorney, you can push for a better future for yourself and your children.

Start Your Next Chapter Your Family. Our Focus.

What to Expect During a Family Law Case

Every family law case is unique, but many follow a general path. After an initial consultation, your attorney gathers information, reviews documents, and helps you understand your legal options. If you’re filing for divorce, custody, or support, your case begins with a formal petition to the court.

From there, the process may involve:

  • Temporary order hearings for custody or support
  • Discovery, where both sides exchange documents and evidence
  • Settlement discussions or formal negotiations
  • Court hearings and final orders if no agreement is reached

Throughout the process, emotions can run high. That’s why it’s critical to have legal support you can trust. A knowledgeable Austin female family lawyer can help you make informed decisions,
avoid common mistakes, and stay focused on the outcome that matters most for you and your children.

Common Misconceptions About Family Law

Family law is often misunderstood, especially when emotions are high. One common myth is that mothers have an easy time winning primary custody. Many courts favor stability, but they examine each case individually, and fathers can also be awarded what’s known in Texas as managing conservatorship (primary custody).

Another misconception is that child support is automatic. While most cases involve a support order for children, there are situations where no order is issued, particularly when both parties share equal time or income and agree that child support is not needed.

Many people also believe everything is split 50/50 in divorce, but Texas law focuses on what’s “just and right,” not necessarily equal. A knowledgeable family law attorney in Austin can help you separate fact from common misconceptions.
