Fort Bend County Family Law Attorney

Lawyer for Paternity, Orders of Protection and Domestic Violence in Katy, Texas

Family law has become increasingly complex in the past few decades. Today, 25% of parents with a child at home are unmarried, up from 16% in 1987. The number of unmarried parents choosing to cohabit with an adult partner rather than going it solo has also risen substantially.

Advances in assisted reproduction have enabled men to have a biological child via gestational surrogacy and women to become single mothers by choice. Sweeping changes in nationwide laws regarding same-sex marriage and parentage have taken place since 2015.

At The Foray Firm, we believe that the practice of family law is more about the family than the law. Our number-one goal is to help you meet the needs of your family, and we do this by wielding our legal prowess on your behalf.
