Spring TX Divorce Lawyer

By Samantha E. Frazier, Family Law Attorney, State Bar of Texas

Quick answer: Spring lies mostly in Harris County, with northern areas in Montgomery County, so where you file for divorce depends on your address. To file, one spouse must have lived in Texas for at least six months and in that county for at least 90 days. Texas requires a 60-day waiting period before a divorce is final, and marital property is divided in a way the court finds just and right. CoilLaw’s family law attorneys help Spring families in both counties.

Finding the right Spring, TX divorce lawyer is an important first step, and in Spring there is an added detail: the community sits across two counties, so your case may be handled in Harris County or Montgomery County depending on where you live. CoilLaw represents clients throughout Spring in divorce, child custody, and the full range of family law matters, from uncontested filings to complex, high-asset cases. Our attorneys practice under the Texas Family Code, and we serve families from Old Town Spring to Gleannloch Farms and Springwoods Village. This page explains how a Spring divorce works and how we can help.

Family Law Services in Spring

Our practice covers far more than the divorce filing itself. Learn more on our practice areas page:

• Contested and uncontested divorce. Whether agreed or heavily disputed, we protect your interests.
• Child custody and conservatorship. We help parents secure fair possession and access schedules.
• Child support. We calculate, negotiate, and later modify support under Texas guidelines.
• Property and asset division. Community property rules grow complex quickly, and we make division fair.
• High-net-worth and complex-asset divorce. We handle business interests, real estate, and retirement accounts.
• Spousal maintenance. Texas limits spousal support, so eligibility and duration matter.
• Mediation and collaborative divorce. When privacy and cost control matter, we pursue resolutions that avoid a courtroom.

Divorce in Spring: Which County Handles Your Case?

Spring straddles Harris County and Montgomery County, and you file where you live, not simply in “Spring.”

• Most of Spring, including Old Town Spring and Springwoods Village, sits in Harris County, filed at the Family Law Center in downtown Houston.
• Northern areas fall in Montgomery County, where the district courts are in Conroe.

Because the county line runs nearby, we confirm your exact county before filing so your case starts in the right court.

Who can file

One spouse must have lived in Texas for at least six months and in the filing county for at least 90 days before the case begins.

How long it takes

Texas requires a 60-day waiting period from filing before a divorce can be finalized. Uncontested cases often resolve in about 60 to 90 days; contested cases can take several months to more than a year.

Grounds and property

Most divorces are filed on the no-fault ground of insupportability. Texas is a community property state, so property acquired during the marriage is generally divided in a manner the court finds just and right, which does not always mean an even split.

Children and conservatorship

Texas decides parenting through a Suit Affecting the Parent-Child Relationship, using conservatorship rather than custody and possession and access rather than visitation, guided by the best interest of the child.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which county handles my divorce if I live in Spring?

It depends on your address. Most of Spring is in Harris County, filed in downtown Houston, while northern areas are in Montgomery County, with courts in Conroe. We confirm your county before filing so your case starts in the correct court.

What are the residency requirements to file for divorce in Texas?

One spouse must have lived in Texas for at least six months and in the county of filing for at least 90 days before the case begins. If you recently moved to Spring, we can advise you on timing.

How long does a Texas divorce take?

Texas requires a minimum 60-day waiting period from filing before a divorce is final. An uncontested case often finishes in about 60 to 90 days, while contested divorces can take several months to more than a year.

How much does a divorce cost in Texas?

The cost depends on whether the divorce is contested and how complex the assets and custody issues are. An uncontested divorce costs far less than a case that goes to trial. During your consultation, we explain our fees clearly and what drives them.

What is a temporary order in a Texas divorce?

A temporary order sets the rules while the divorce is pending, covering things like who lives in the home, temporary support, and a schedule for the children. It keeps daily life stable until the final decree is entered.

Can my spouse and I use the same divorce lawyer?

No. A single lawyer cannot ethically represent both spouses because your interests may conflict. One spouse may hire an attorney while the other proceeds without one, but each of you is entitled to independent advice.
