Serving Andrews, Andrews County · 30 mi from our Odessa office
Family Law Attorney in Andrews, TX
Andrews sits about 35 minutes north of our Odessa office up US-385 — close enough that we appear in Andrews County courtrooms regularly, and far enough that having a lawyer who already knows those courtrooms saves you real time and money. From oilfield families managing custody around rotation schedules to ranching families dividing land and mineral interests in divorce, we've handled the legal problems that are specific to life in Andrews.
Andrews County's economy runs on oil — and that shapes family law here. Fluctuating oilfield income complicates child support calculations, mineral rights and royalty interests complicate property division, and long shifts complicate possession schedules. We build orders that actually work for Andrews families: income averaging for support, rotation-friendly custody calendars, and clean division of mineral and surface estates.
Andrews County Courts: Where Your Case Is Filed
Family law cases for Andrews residents are filed with the Andrews County District Clerk and heard in the 109th Judicial District Court at the Andrews County Courthouse, 201 N. Main Street, Andrews, TX 79714. The 109th District serves Andrews, Crane, and Winkler counties, so its docket moves differently than Ector County's — knowing how local settings, mediation expectations, and standing orders work in Andrews is part of what you hire us for.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I file for divorce in Andrews County or Ector County?
If you've lived in Andrews County for at least 90 days (and in Texas for 6 months), you file with the Andrews County District Clerk and your case is heard in the 109th District Court. Living in Andrews and working in Odessa doesn't change that — residence controls, not where you work.
How do you handle oilfield income for child support in Andrews?
Andrews paychecks swing with the rig count. Courts can average 12–24 months of income — including bonuses and per diems — rather than using one unusually high or low month. We document the full income picture so the support number is fair and sustainable through boom and slowdown.
