Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: Common Law Marriages

Yes, Texas is one of the few states that recognizes common law marriages.

There are several things that need to be done to claim a common law marriage.

For example, living together for 7 years is NOT a requirement.

If you would like more information, you can look in on line for the Texas Family Code that clearly defines common law marriages in Texas.
