Family Law

Family law is an aspect of the legal profession that is, for obvious reasons, intensely personal. Clients involved in family law disputes need both personal and professional support through times that are highly emotional, but require calm and reasoned decision-making. The family law attorneys at Hammerle Finley have the ability and experience to handle all of your family law needs, from the detailed management of a complex marital property dispute to the sensitive advocacy needed in an emotionally charged child custody proceeding. Five of our attorneys are Board Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. Attorneys William F. Neal and Kathryn J. Tidwell are Board Certified in Family Law. Mr. Neal serves as Managing Attorney of the Family Law Section of Hammerle Finley. Attorneys L. James (Jim) Ashmore and Kimberly P. Killebrew and Barbara B.
