Austin Divorce Lawyer

Experienced divorce lawyer in Austin, Texas for all your family law issues

Family law issues require a knowledgeable, experienced Austin Divorce attorney who can help you deal with your legal concerns in the best possible way. Divorce is the most common reason people consult a family lawyer. And it is by far the most challenging.

Austin divorce lawyer William D. Powers is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialties—a recognition shared by only a small percentage of Texas lawyers. But more than that, he has helped countless divorcing clients find their way to final legal agreements that support their lives and their families going forward.

Knowledgeable legal guidance means so much when you are changing your life

Issues such as child custody and visitation rights, child and spousal support, and property division may at first seem overwhelming, even in divorces where the partners try to cooperate. But with the help of a trained Austin divorce lawyer, it is possible to protect your interests while looking out for the future of your family.

Bill Powers brings perspective, strong negotiation skills, and intimate knowledge of the law to every family law client he helps. These qualities help his clients in all areas of family law to reach the best possible resolution to their issues, including:

• Uncontested divorce. To help divorcing couples reach an understanding on serious issues such as child custody and property division, Bill uses his unique skills as a trained mediator and certified collaborative divorce lawyer to forge agreements that work for all parties.
• Contested divorce. When it is not possible to reach an agreement through reason, Bill becomes an aggressive advocate for his clients, fighting to protect their rights to reach fair resolution of disputed issues.
• Protective orders and family violence. Protecting clients from violence through legal means demands experience and aggressive measures. No one should fear being hurt by another and Bill takes every legal step necessary to prevent it.
• Adoption. Adopting a child can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life—but potentially devastating legal issues can arise. Bill understands the requirements of the legal adoption process and helps couples work within adoption laws to build a happy family.
• Prenuptial and post-marital agreements. No one knows what the future may bring. More couples than ever choose to create legal agreements before or during marriage to protect assets, the inheritance rights of their children by previous marriages, and for a host of other reasons. Bill has helped many clients put their worries to rest with well-crafted agreements that stand up to the test of the courts.
• Paternity. With more parents choosing not to marry, establishing paternity and all that go with it becomes more important every day. Once the paternity of a child has been determined, responsibilities such as custody and support can be shared by both parents. Bill has the skills to develop appropriate parenting plans that put the interests of the child first.
