Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Common Law?

I lived with my ex for 4 years. We have a child together and were engaged. I believe my auto insurance company put us as married to make my insurance cheaper.

I have read that there are 3 requirements to be common law in Texas. Have we met these 3 requirements? We are spliting up and she is threatening to take half of everything and I need to know if this is possible for her to do.

Thanks

Re: Common Law?

I suggest you file for divorce today because right now she could move away with your child and you would have a very hard time seeing the child. If you are in the Houston area cantact us 281.485.0990
