Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I suspect that the only people going to win are the attorneys.

Since there are no children involved, arguing about drug usage is a waste of time.

Arguing about adultery only involves property division. I assume that there is community property to divide. If there is no community property to divide than there is nothing to argue about.

You need to talk to your attorney about what you are trying to "win".

You are spending a lot of money in attorney fees.

I assume that you legal fees are costing over $250 per hour.

I find that there are no winners in divorce court - other than the attorneys because they are going to make a lot of money off of you.

I'm sure that you are aware that most courts order the parties to attend mediation before trial.
