Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Re: how much does divorce cost?

It depends.

The filing fees vary from county to county, but average around $235, and the service of process will also vary, but again, around $75 each service.

Attorney fees will depend upon whether it is contested, uncontested; whether there are children, real estate, 401K, etc.

Standard conservatorship is joint, with one parent as the primary and the other as the possessory. Who gets appointed depends upon either the agreement, or who the judge considers to be in the best interest of the child.

Send some emails, make some phone calls, to lawyers in your area for a clearer picture for your situation.
