Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
Representation
I have retained the services of an attorney that has represented immediate family members, and my husband and myself previously. I have been told that I will have to get another attorney, that my current one can not represent me. Is this correct?

Re: Representation
Sounds to me like he may have a conflict of interest. I don't what the exact facts are so I couldn't tell you what the conflict is, but I suspect this is what the problem is, and yes if does indeed have a conflict you would under those circumstances need to obtain new legal counsel.
Re: Representation
If you and your husband are divorcing, and he has previously represented both of you in other matters, there may be a conflict. If you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex feel free to call me at817 763 0600
