Consider the issue of insurance in a divorce
Texas divorces are not as simple as settling details of custody and property division. The issues in these divorces go beyond that as there are things such as life insurance to consider.

Changing or appealing a child custody order
Parents in Texas may find themselves in sharp disagreement with the decision of a family court, especially after a child custody hearing.

After an unfavorable decision, a parent may wonder if they have the ability to appeal a child custody decision. As with other types of court orders, a child custody case can be appealed; however, only a final order can be brought up on appeal rather than a temporary or interim custody decision.
