Sullivan, Klocke, Evans & Goenawein, P.C., Are Skilled LGBTQ+ Family Law Attorneys
Since 2015 when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that state bans on same-sex marriage were unconstitutional, same-sex couples in Texas and throughout the nation have been able to marry and enjoy the same constitutionally protected benefits of marriage afforded to opposite-sex couples. However, same-sex individuals and families in the Dallas-Fort Worth Area still face unique challenges when dealing with family law issues. It is important to have an attorney who is familiar with the still evolving laws affecting LGBTQ+ individuals, parents and families and who is experienced in handling the unique issues that can arise in a family law dispute.
At Sullivan, Klocke, Evans & Goenawein, P.C., we have an experienced and knowledgeable team dedicated to helping LGBTQ+ Texans navigate the unique, and sometimes complex, issues that arise in LGBTQ+ family law cases. We are committed to providing compassionate and zealous representation to help you get through your family law issue and ensure your rights are protected.

- Property division
