Serving Notrees, Ector County · 25 mi from our Odessa office
Family Law Attorney in Notrees, TX
Notrees is the small oilfield community on Highway 302 in western Ector County — about 25 minutes from our Odessa office. Families in Notrees live around the oilfield: housing tied to work, paychecks tied to the rig count, and one parent often on a hitch when hearings, school meetings, and exchanges happen. We build family law orders that survive that reality.
Your case is filed in the same Ector County courts as Odessa's, and that works in your favor: no travel for depositions or mediations that can happen by video, a courthouse 30 minutes away when appearances are required, and lawyers who are in those courtrooms weekly. Divorce, custody, child support, enforcement, protective orders — handled from filing to final order.
Where Notrees Cases Are Filed
Family law cases for Notrees residents are filed with the Ector County District Clerk and heard in the Ector County district courts (70th, 161st, 244th, 446th) at the Ector County Courthouse, 300 N. Grant Avenue, Odessa, TX 79761. Most steps of a modern family case — case evaluations, document signing, even mediation — can happen remotely, so a Notrees address never slows your case down.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I handle most of my case without driving to Odessa?
Yes. Case Evaluations, document review, signatures, and most mediations happen by phone or video. You'll generally only need to appear in person for contested hearings and the final prove-up — and we prepare you for exactly what each one requires.
How does child support work when my pay depends on the rig count?
Texas courts can average fluctuating oilfield income over 12–24 months instead of freezing one good or bad month into the order. And if work slows, file for modification immediately — support only changes from the date you file, never retroactively.
