Comprehensive Family Law Services in Lubbock

At Cofer & Connelly, PLLC, we offer a full range of family law services to address every stage of the legal process. No case is too complicated or delicate for our team. Key areas of our practice include the following:

Divorce

A divorce marks a significant life transition, often accompanied by complex legal and financial challenges. Our team provides clear guidance on issues such as dividing marital property, determining spousal maintenance, and developing custody arrangements.

Our attorneys prioritize amicable solutions, such as negotiation and mediation, to minimize stress and conflict. If litigation becomes necessary, we are equipped to represent your best interests in court while striving for a fair and favorable outcome.

Child Custody

Child custody is one of the most emotional aspects of family law, as it impacts both your parental rights and your child’s future well-being. Texas courts prioritize the child’s best interests by evaluating factors such as the parenting relationship, home stability, and emotional needs.

Our attorneys work with you to create parenting plans that reflect your child’s needs while ensuring your rights as a parent are respected. From physical custody agreements to legal decision-making authority, we help families create arrangements that foster positive relationships and long-term stability.

Child Support

A fair child support agreement ensures that children receive the financial resources they need to thrive. Texas law determines child support based on a formula that factors in income and the child’s unique requirements.

Whether you are seeking to establish, modify, or enforce a child support order, our lawyers will guide you through the legal process to achieve a resolution that benefits both you and your child.

Spousal Maintenance

Spousal maintenance, commonly referred to as alimony, is a critical consideration in many divorces. Texas law sets strict eligibility criteria for spousal support, and outcomes are influenced by factors such as the marriage’s duration and the financial disparity between the spouses.

Our experienced attorneys will help you negotiate a fair agreement that addresses your financial needs or protects against unreasonable demands.

Domestic Violence and Protective Orders

If domestic violence threatens your safety or that of your family, immediate legal action is critical. Our team is dedicated to protecting victims by obtaining protective orders and addressing legal needs efficiently and discreetly.

We also provide robust defense services for those facing accusations of domestic violence, ensuring due process and protecting clients' rights.
