Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

separation

I'm separated, my wife is in the process of filing for divorce. I have my own apartment, she is in the house. We have agreed to joint custody of the kids so they are with me half of the time. My question is am I still responsible for half of the house payment now that I have my own residence to pay for?

Re: separation

You really need to talk to a good family law attorney. A divorce that involves children and a house is really not a DIY kind of thing, and your email tells me you really don't understand what you are doing. It's much cheaper in the long run to pay a smaller amount now and do it correctly than to end up paying a lot to try to correct things later. Good luck!
