Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
Hello Lawguru,
I've been married for about 3 years got married on January 7, 2011 separated March 20, 2011. Now I have two kids from someone else. My husband and I have nothing together at all, no property and no kids together. Was a BIG mistake that I am trying to move on from.

Unfortunately, your divorce will include these 2 children since they were born during the marriage. You have a complex divorce. I assume your husband wants a court to declare that he is not the father and to not give him any parental rights.
The judge will probably want DNA testing to prove who the father is legally.
You need an experienced family law attorney to help you navigate this divorce.
It appears you live in Harris County, if so I recommend attorney Patricia Bushman at 713-807-9405. She offers payment plans to make her services affordable. How much will it cost? It depends if the husband want to "fight" then it could get very expensive. Also, I assume that the children's father will cooperate. He will be part of the divorce process too.
I only mediate. If you need a mediator, please contact me.
Good luck!
