Family Law Services for Stanton, Texas Residents

Stanton is the seat of Martin County, a half hour northeast of our Odessa office up I-20 past Midland. Martin County shares the 118th Judicial District with Howard and Glasscock counties — the same court we appear in for our Big Spring clients — so Stanton families get counsel already fluent in that court's settings, mediation expectations, and standing orders.

Stanton is farm and family country: cotton operations, multi-generation land, and households where one spouse commutes to Midland's energy jobs. Its family law reflects that mix — dividing farmland and equipment (and protecting inherited separate property), custody schedules that respect a Midland commute, and child support built on a blend of farm and W-2 income. We've handled each of these for Martin County families.

Martin County Courts: Where Your Case Is Filed

Family law cases for Stanton residents are filed with the Martin County District Clerk and heard in the 118th Judicial District Court at the Martin County Courthouse, 301 N. St. Peter Street, Stanton, TX 79782. The 118th District rides between Martin, Howard, and Glasscock counties, so hearings are set around the court's rotation — a rhythm we already work from our Big Spring practice.

Frequently Asked Questions — Stanton

Is inherited farmland divided in a Stanton divorce?+
Inherited land is separate property and stays with the heir — but community-funded improvements, crop income handling, and commingled operating accounts can create reimbursement claims against it. Clean records win these fights; we help you assemble deeds, gift documents, and account histories early.
One of us works in Midland and one in Stanton — where is custody decided?+
Where the child has lived for the last 6 months controls: for Stanton kids, that's Martin County and the 118th District Court. A geographic restriction tied to Martin and contiguous counties typically keeps the child's home base stable while both parents work.

How long does a divorce take for Stanton couples?+
