Nelson Law Roundup: 8 Useful blog posts about Marriage – When a prospective client walks into a family law attorney’s office, many of them already have their minds made up about their marriage struggles and see divorce as the only alternative. Even the ones who don’t want to get divorced feel as if they have no control over their new path, and that it’s the lawyer’s job to see everything through to the end.
Divorce is a big piece of what we do here at Nelson Law Group, PC in Flower Mound, TX, but I view my role as an attorney differently from most, mainly because of my outlook on marriage and the idea that the grass is greener where you water it.
Marriage is a covenant relationship between two people and God, and it is worth fighting for. It’s your ability to stand side-by-side as a family, and in your faith with God, through good times and bad that makes your marriage stronger. At our office, we seek to provide counsel in a variety of areas, so that our clients not only understand the consequences of their decisions and that being married is hard work but also feel like they have a true legal partner.
If we can save a marriage, or at least send someone down a more productive path, then we have truly done our job.
We are proud to say our library of blog posts on this topic and more is not only as comprehensive as it gets but also breaks all the conversations down into bite-sized pieces everyone can understand.
Below is a roundup of 8 useful blog posts about Marriage:
