When your family faces legal challenges, working with an experienced attorney who understands Texas family law—and your local community—can make all the difference. At Setzer Law Firm PLLC, we provide personalized, results-focused legal representation for families in Denton, TX and across Denton County.
From divorce and custody disputes to property division and adoption, our firm brings over 30 years of combined experience to every case. We serve clients throughout Denton with trusted legal guidance that protects what matters most—your children, your finances, and your future.
Whether you’re preparing for divorce, fighting for custody, or protecting your rights as a parent or grandparent, we offer comprehensive family law services tailored to your situation.
Comprehensive representation for men and women navigating divorce—whether contested, uncontested, or complex. We protect your parental rights, assets, and peace of mind through every phase of the process.
Resolve disputes amicably and cost-effectively through structured mediation. We guide couples toward practical, fair solutions without the emotional and financial cost of trial.
Assert your right to be involved in your child’s life. We represent mothers and fathers seeking to preserve decision-making authority and parenting time.
Protect your right to receive or defend against spousal maintenance claims. We pursue outcomes based on your needs and Texas law.
We ensure our clients receive their equitable share of the marital estate. This includes Marital residence, Retirement accounts, and Bank accounts, among other assets.
Smart, future-focused financial guidance during divorce. We help you understand the long-term impact of asset division, support, and debt.
Not all assets are subject to division in divorce. We help clients identify, trace, and protect separate property such as inheritances, gifts, and premarital assets to ensure they remain legally yours.
Your relationship with your child deserves protection. We help parents create and enforce custody arrangements that support the child’s best interests.
When one parent manipulates a child to reject the other, the damage can be lasting. We act quickly to restore healthy parent-child relationships and hold alienating parties accountable.
Establishing legal fatherhood is essential for custody, visitation, and support. We represent mothers and fathers in both voluntary and contested paternity cases.
We help fathers gain equal footing in custody, support, and decision-making. Your bond with your child matters—we fight to protect it.
Whether seeking primary custody, financial support, or protection from abuse, we help mothers safeguard their children and their legal rights.
When you’re being denied contact or need to step in to protect your grandchild’s welfare, we help grandparents seek visitation or conservatorship.
If you’re facing threats, harassment, or violence, we help you obtain fast, enforceable court protection for yourself and your children.
Make your bond with your stepchild permanent. We guide families through the legal process of stepparent adoption, from termination of parental rights to final decree.
