Twenty-Eight Years Devoted To Texas Family Law
Lynda Landers practises family law and nothing else. Divorce, modifications, enforcement, child custody, high-conflict matters, complex high-asset property division and adoption — all of it in Texas, most of it in the Collin County family district courts and the surrounding counties.
Family law is not a practice area you can dabble in. The statutes change, the local rules differ from court to court, and the judges have known preferences that no treatise records. Twenty-eight years in the same courts is worth more to a client than a broad practice ever could be.
An Approach Built On Documentation
An outcome is only as strong as the record behind it. That means establishing what the estate actually holds before any number is agreed to, documenting the history of care before either parent tells the court about it, and knowing what the Family Code requires before a position is taken.
Cases are prepared as though they will be tried. Most of them settle instead — which is exactly the point, because a matter built for trial negotiates from a far stronger position at the mediation table.
Working With Other Professionals
Family law cases are rarely only legal problems. Lynda works directly with therapists, child custody evaluators, forensic accountants and business valuation experts, so the emotional, legal and financial sides of a case are addressed together rather than in sequence. An integrated strategy produces better outcomes than a legal argument built in isolation.
