Practice Overview

North Texas Family Law and Estate Planning

At the Law Office of Jimmy Ira Carter we handle all of the following on behalf of the people of the Dallas / Fort Worth Metroplex:

  • Divorce: We handle every aspect of a divorce, taking the burden of legal troubles off your shoulders. Jimmy works closely with each client to arrange custody, spousal and child support, property division, debt division, and much more.
  • Parentage / Paternity: Whether you need to prove paternity in court or want to contest a paternity charge, our lawyer can help.
  • Modifications: You can modify any aspect of a divorce agreement, from support to custody, but you must go through a formal court process.
  • Mediation / Collaborative Law: Jimmy is strong believer in the alternative dispute resolution techniques of mediation and collaborative law. Both methods allow people to resolve divorces and other matters with a minimum of expense and stress.
  • Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements: Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can help people make their own decisions about how their assets will be divided in the event of a divorce.
  • Probate: Not every estate must go through probate, which is the process of proving a will before carrying out its provisions. But even if you do have to go through probate, it may be a less complex and inexpensive process than you may anticipate.
  • Elder Law / Estate Planning: Regardless of the size of your estate, planning is vital -- you must leave your heirs with clear instructions about the dispersal of your assets. Just as important are powers of attorney, which determine your affairs if you are incapacitated, and other elder law issues such as Social Security Disability benefits, nursing home planning, etc.
  • Attorney General cases involving family law
