FUENTEZ FAMILY LAW

Facing Divorce?
You Don't Have to Go Through It Alone.

As a family law attorney in Magnolia, TX, I’m proud to be a trusted and trustworthy resource for local folks struggling with difficult issues.

What to Expect from your Divorce Lawyer
Divorce isn’t something that any couple wants to experience, but sometimes a couple just needs to go their separate ways.

Experience and reputation matters when you are looking for a divorce attorney. A local, private practice may suit your needs better. I maintain a small caseload so that every client gets the time he or she needs.

Working with larger firms or even nationwide firms, you may be just another client. It may be difficult to get in touch with your attorney. Many attorneys just go through the motions of filing paperwork, mediating and going through the motions of divorce court.

In Montgomery County, you can rest assured that I will be with you every step of the way while providing tools to help you cope with life after divorce. As your divorce lawyer, I’ll listen and help you devise a plan to rebuild your life.

Finding the Right Person to Represent You

Choosing a divorce attorney isn’t like picking a plumber off a search results page. This is someone who’ll have access to your finances, your children’s lives, and some of the hardest decisions you’ll ever make — so the choice matters.

At Fuentez Law, you’re not handed off to a case manager or a rotating team of associates. You work directly with Sandra Fuentez, from your first consultation to your final court date. She keeps her caseload intentionally small so every client gets real attention — not a generic playbook.

That means:

  • A lawyer who knows your case — not just your file number
  • Straight answers, even when they’re hard to hear
  • A strategy built around your family, not a one-size-fits-all template
  • Someone who picks up the phone when you need her most

If you’re comparing attorneys right now, ask the question that matters most: will this person actually be there for you? With Sandra, the answer is yes.

FAQ's

When should I file for Divorce?

There’s no universal “right time” — but if you find yourself constantly unhappy, feeling disconnected from your spouse, or wondering whether things will ever get better, it may be worth exploring your options. Divorce is a deeply personal decision, and our attorneys are here to listen, answer your questions, and help you with clarity during this process.

Will I have to go to court for my divorce?

Not necessarily. Many divorces are resolved through negotiation or mediation without a trial. Our attorneys work to reach a fair settlement whenever possible, but we’re fully prepared to advocate for you in court if litigation becomes necessary.

Do I need a reason to file for divorce in Texas?

Not necessarily. Many divorces are resolved through negotiation or mediation without a trial. Our attorneys work to reach a fair settlement whenever possible, but we’re fully prepared to advocate for you in court if litigation becomes necessary.

How is property divided in a Texas divorce?

Texas is a community property state, meaning most property acquired during the marriage is considered jointly owned and subject to division. Our attorneys work to ensure your assets, including your home, retirement accounts, and business interests, are divided fairly.

How long does a divorce take in Texas?

Texas law requires a minimum 60-day waiting period from the date the petition is filed before a divorce can be finalized. The overall timeline depends on factors like whether the divorce is contested, if children are involved, and how quickly both parties reach agreement on key issues.

Can I get divorced if my spouse doesn't agree?

Yes. Texas does not require both spouses to agree to a divorce. As long as one spouse files and the legal requirements are met, the divorce can proceed even if the other spouse is unwilling or unresponsive, though an uncontested case is typically faster and less costly than one where both sides disagree on key terms.
