Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions

Board Certification in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization is a rigorous credential that requires demonstrated experience, peer recognition, and passing a comprehensive exam. It signifies a level of expertise that only a select group of Texas family law attorneys have achieved.

The firm handles the full spectrum of family law, including divorce, child custody and conservatorship, complex property division, division of closely held business interests, asset tracing, stock option division, and relocation matters.

Amy Gehm represents clients in Travis, Hays, Williamson, Bastrop, and Caldwell Counties in Texas.

Not necessarily. Amy offers both collaborative and litigation-based approaches. Many matters can be resolved through negotiation or collaborative processes — but if litigation is required, Amy is a skilled and prepared courtroom advocate.

Amy has significant experience with sophisticated marital estates, including the division of closely held corporations, restricted stock units, stock options, and the characterization and tracing of separate property assets. These matters require specialized legal and financial analysis, which Amy provides directly.

No — in fact, the earlier you understand your rights and options, the better positioned you are to protect yourself and your family. An initial consultation does not commit you to any course of action; it simply gives you clarity.

In Texas, the legal term for what most people call "custody" is conservatorship. It covers both the rights and duties of each parent regarding the child, as well as possession and access schedules. Amy can explain exactly what conservatorship arrangements are possible given your family's circumstances.

You'll speak with the firm to arrange an initial consultation with Amy. During that meeting, she will listen to your situation, explain how Texas family law applies to your circumstances, and outline the options available to you — so you can make informed decisions.
