Comprehensive Texas Family Law Practice

Divorce: Bruce Turner is dedicated to protecting his clients' interests in custody issues, property division, and other issues that arise in divorce.
Child custody and visitation: Child custody and visitation rights are often the most contentious concerns in a divorce. Mr. Turner helps clients negotiate fair child custody arrangements that are in the best interests of everyone involved - especially the children. He also handles modifications of custody and visitation as well as enforcement of visitation schedules.
Support and maintenance: Attorney Turner uses his experience and knowledge of Texas child support guidelines and factors for spousal maintenance to advise clients about child support and alimony (spousal maintenance). He also handles modifications and enforcement of child support and spousal maintenance orders.
Domestic violence and restraining orders: When people are involved in an abusive situation at home - spousal abuse, child abuse, or other family abuse - the law provides protection through restraining orders and other means. Family law attorney Bruce Turner assists clients in obtaining protective orders and in challenging such orders that were filed through false pretences. In addition, he provides effective counsel to clients involved in Child Protective Services (CPS) cases arising from child abuse or neglect allegations.

With 30 years of legal experience, Bruce Turner is capable of providing exceptional legal advice to clients in all aspects of family law. He goes beyond "handling the matter for you." He provides clients with advice regarding the options and encourages them to take an active role in making informed decisions regarding their cases. This is especially important in family law cases because the issues involved are very personal. The solutions can usually be more appealing to all involved if they are obtained through alternative dispute resolution, such as family mediation. Solutions ordered by the court are frequently less personal or creative and may not accurately reflect the best interests of those involved.
