Family Law Services for Big Spring, Texas Residents

Big Spring is the seat of Howard County, about 50 minutes east of Odessa on I-20 — and Howard County courts run on their own rhythm. We represent Big Spring families in divorce, custody, child support, adoption, and enforcement, and we handle the drive so you don't have to choose between a local generalist and a Permian Basin family law firm that focuses on this work every day.

Big Spring's mix is unique in West Texas: refinery and hospital shift workers, VA Medical Center employees and veterans, correctional staff, and multi-generation ranching families. Each brings its own family law wrinkles — shift-work possession schedules, military and VA benefits in divorce, retirement division for career civil servants, and land that has been in the family longer than the marriage. We've worked all of them.

Howard County Courts: Where Your Case Is Filed

Family cases for Big Spring residents are filed with the Howard County District Clerk and heard in the 118th Judicial District Court at the Howard County Courthouse, 300 S. Main Street, Big Spring, TX 79720. The 118th District covers Howard, Martin, and Glasscock counties. Howard County also uses associate judge settings for many family matters — we know which hearings decide your case and prepare accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions — Big Spring

Is a veteran's VA disability divided in a Big Spring divorce?+
VA disability compensation itself is not divisible community property, but it counts as income for child support and spousal maintenance, and military retirement (as opposed to disability) can be divided. With the VA Medical Center in Big Spring, we handle these distinctions constantly — get them wrong and the decree can be unenforceable.
Can I use a lawyer from Odessa for a Howard County case?+
Yes — Texas attorneys practice statewide, and we appear in the 118th District Court regularly. Many Big Spring clients prefer a Permian Basin firm that isn't socially intertwined with a small local bar, especially in contested divorces where privacy matters.

Yes. Big Spring is approximately 50 miles from our Odessa office. We regularly represent Big Spring (Howard County) residents in divorce, child custody, child support, adoption, and criminal defense matters. We offer phone, video, and in-person consultations.

Can I get a divorce in Texas if I live in Big Spring?+
Yes, provided either spouse has lived in Texas for at least 6 months and in your county for at least 90 days (TX Family Code §6.301). For Big Spring residents, this typically means filing in Howard County.
How long does a divorce take for Big Spring couples?+
