Divorce in Texas is governed by community property principles, but the practical application of those rules in a real case — especially one involving a business, investment portfolio, retirement accounts, or real estate holdings — is anything but simple. Attorney Spenser Housewright Calhoun has built her practice around exactly these high-stakes situations, leveraging deep experience in business valuation, asset tracing, and intricate property characterization to protect her clients' financial futures. Whether you are a professional, an entrepreneur, or a spouse with significant separate property claims, the firm provides end-to-end representation that spans discovery, temporary hearings, negotiation, mediation, and, when necessary, full trial. Collin County courts have their own procedural rhythms and judicial expectations, and the firm's familiarity with the local bench and bar in McKinney gives clients a meaningful strategic advantage from day one. If you are looking for a McKinney family law attorney who combines courtroom readiness with genuine financial sophistication, Housewright Law Group is prepared to stand in your corner.
Child Custody, Support, and High-Conflict Parenting Disputes

Child Custody, Support, and High-Conflict Parenting Disputes

Few legal battles carry more emotional weight than a custody dispute, and few require more strategic precision. At Housewright Law Group, custody cases — whether they involve geographic restrictions, parental relocation, allegations of domestic violence, or deeply entrenched co-parenting conflict — are approached with both rigorous advocacy and a genuine commitment to protecting children's best interests under Texas law. The firm handles the full spectrum of custody matters: conservatorship arrangements, possession and access schedules, child support calculations and enforcement, and modifications when life circumstances change after a final order is entered. Attorney Calhoun's trial advocacy skills are particularly valuable when a case cannot be resolved through mediation and a judge must ultimately decide a child's living situation. Clients throughout McKinney and surrounding Collin County communities can learn more about the firm's approach and philosophy by visiting housewrightlawgroup.com, where the team's commitment to clear communication and durable outcomes is evident throughout.
Protective Orders, Modifications, and Post-Divorce Enforcement

Protective Orders, Modifications, and Post-Divorce Enforcement

A family law matter rarely ends the moment a final decree is signed. Life evolves — incomes change, children grow older, co-parenting agreements break down, and safety concerns sometimes emerge that require immediate court intervention. Housewright Law Group provides comprehensive post-divorce services, including the enforcement of existing court orders when the other party refuses to comply, modifications to custody or support arrangements when there has been a material and substantial change in circumstances, and the pursuit or defense of temporary restraining orders and protective orders when safety is at risk. The firm also drafts and reviews prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, helping clients in McKinney and throughout Collin County protect their assets and define expectations before or during a marriage. Every matter — from an emergency protective order to a carefully negotiated marital agreement — is handled with the same level of preparation and discretion that has become the hallmark of this practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

The firm handles the full spectrum of Texas family law matters, including divorce, child custody and conservatorship, child support, adoption, paternity, mediation, protective orders, temporary restraining orders, enforcement of court orders, post-divorce modifications, and prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. Housewright Law Group, PLLC is particularly well-suited for cases involving complex marital estates, business interests, and high-conflict custody disputes throughout McKinney and Collin County.

Texas is a community property state, which means that most assets and debts acquired during the marriage are presumed to be jointly owned and subject to a just and right division upon divorce. However, characterizing property as community or separate — and then tracing and valuing it accurately — can be extraordinarily complex, especially when a business, stock portfolio, or inheritance is involved. The firm's experience with asset tracing and business valuation helps ensure that clients in Collin County receive an equitable outcome rather than simply an even split.

Texas law uses the term conservatorship rather than custody. A managing conservator holds the right to make significant decisions about a child's life, including education, healthcare, and religious upbringing, while a possessory conservator has the right to spend time with the child. Courts generally prefer joint managing conservatorship unless there is a compelling reason to limit one parent's rights. Attorney Spenser Housewright Calhoun helps clients understand these distinctions and advocates for arrangements that truly serve each child's best interests.

Housewright Law Group serves clients throughout Collin County, including McKinney, Plano, Frisco, Allen, and surrounding communities, and has developed substantial familiarity with local court procedures, judicial expectations, and the Collin County bench. This local knowledge allows the firm to anticipate how a judge may view a particular argument or evidentiary issue, which can significantly influence litigation strategy and the ultimate outcome of your case.

Yes. If you are facing a situation involving domestic violence, harassment, or a credible threat of harm, the court can issue a protective order or a temporary restraining order to safeguard you and your children. These orders can restrict the other party from contacting you, coming to your home, or interfering with your children's school or activities. Time is critical in these situations, and acting quickly with experienced legal counsel can make a decisive difference. You can reach the firm directly or learn more at housewrightlawgroup.com.
