Legal Services We Can Provide

Family law encompasses many different issues, some of which often stem from divorce but can also arise separately from it. Regardless of your need for legal service, the attorneys at the Law Office of Mark M. Childress are committed to providing the best possible legal representation.

Our legal services can address a number of family law issues, such as the following:

  • Adoption – The process is often long and difficult to complete, which is why many people turn to professional legal counsel for guidance.
  • Child Custody – Parents often disagree on who should have custody of their children, leaving this decision for the court to decide.
  • Child Visitation – Even after custody is established, parents can disagree on how much access to the child the non-custodial parent has.
  • Divorce – Divorce can encompass a variety of family law issues, which make it complicated enough for most people. Though, a particularly contentious divorce will require experienced counsel to ensure a client is fairly treated by the process.
  • Modifications – Sometimes changes must be made to spousal support, child custody, visitation, and other court orders.
  • Paternity – When a child is born outside of marriage, the biological father’s paternity isn’t assumed. Instead, paternity must be legally established by a judge before a father can petition for custody or visitation with his child.
  • Property Division – A divorce will involve the division of the couple’s assets, which can be uneven. Having an attorney can make a difference in getting a fair portion of your marital estate.

If you require legal assistance for any of these issues, reach out to the Law Office of Mark M. Childress for help. Our family law attorneys in Denton are capable advocates for our clients, which means we may be able to help with another family law matter you don’t see described above.

    “Value a capable team with experienced staff. For the past 9 months, the folks at the Law Offices of Mark Childress handled my case with class and empathy. My questions were heard and answered without having to ask twice. I felt like I was kept in the loop and always briefed properly.

  • Mark was there to answer every question, every phone call and did it in a way that I felt as if I were his only client.

    “I needed an attorney who would stand up for me and my child during a very hard time. Mark was there to answer every question, every phone call and did it in a way that I felt as if I were his only client. He was very knowledgeable not only about the law but about the opposing attorney and the judge. He prepared me well and we won our case. I would recommend Mark Childress to anyone who is fighting for custody or in need of child support.”

  • I highly recommend him and his staff. They are courteous, prompt and they care.

    “I called in inquiring about a divorce and how it all happens. I had 2 people call me back within an hour and in an hour maybe 2 I was talking with the lawyer. I highly recommend him and his staff. They are courteous, prompt and they care. Divorce is the hardest thing we will go through minus losing a kid and his team will be retained. He even called me back himself the next day to see how I was. Great service.”

  • This guy is amazing. In a matter of minutes, he accomplished what no other attorney could in 6 years.

    “This guy is amazing. In a matter of minutes, he accomplished what no other attorney could in 6 years. He had my case figured out in 1short conversation and had what he called "a convoluted mess" fixed. I'm pretty sure my ex felt like he'd been hit by a bus. My family is finally in tact and everyone is finally happy.”
