Divorce & Family Law
A child support order is determined based on your income and ability to pay. Contact the firm so that we can ensure that you will be treated fairly.
Marital relationships are private – only you can decide if divorce is right for you. Speak with an attorney if you are unsure about initiating divorce proceedings, especially if you or your children are victims of an abusive or unfaithful spouse.
It depends on the circumstances of your case. Collaborative law allows you to resolve divorce issues with minimal court involvement.
If you are concerned about your or your children’s safety, the court can restrain a person from interacting with you. Contact your District Attorney’s office to learn more about protective orders.
At The Levinson Law Firm, help is priced fairly and competitively. We’ll work with you to develop a fair payment schedule.
Unless there is a history of child abuse, most courts grant parents visitation privileges. Contact us if you have questions about your visitation privileges.

Wills & Probate
A will is a legal document that details what you want done to your property when you pass and appoints someone to manage the estate.
Texas does not tax estates and federal inheritance taxes only apply to estates worth $11.18 million or more. Therefore, most individiuals will not have to pay taxes on what they inherit. However, if the deceased had outstanding debts at the time of their passing, part of the estate must be liquidated to pay what is owed, including taxes.
Probate is the process by which property is transfered from the decedent to heirs. To initiate this process, the will mustt be probated by a court.
An executor or executrix is a person given legal power to dispose of the deceased’s assets. Most wills name their own executor or executrix.
If you die without a will, the government will distribute your property according to law. To ensure your property goes where you want it to, call an attorney to help you write a will.
At The Levinson Law Firm, will and probate assistance is priced fairly and competitively. We’ll work with you to develop a fair payment schedule.
Every situation is unique but, generally speaking, your debt cannot be transmitted to another person after you die. Debts outstanding at your time of death are repaid during probate. However, if someone is a co-signer to your debts, he or she will be obligated to repay what is owed after you die. Call an attorney if you have concerns about debt transmission.
