Black Dallas Divorce Lawyer
Protecting your future when your marriage is ending
Divorce, handled with strength and care
Chloe W. Corbett, the Duchess of Justice, has spent nearly a decade fighting for Dallas families through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Divorce is rarely simple, and it is almost never just about paperwork. It is about your home, your finances, your children, and the next chapter of your life.
Chloe approaches every divorce case with the same combination of trial-tested strength and genuine care that has made her one of the most respected family law attorneys in Dallas. As the current Chair of the African American Lawyers Section of the State Bar of Texas, she brings both courtroom experience and a deep understanding of what her clients are going through.
Contested and uncontested divorce
Not every divorce looks the same, and your case should be handled according to what it actually is, not forced into a one size fits all process.
Uncontested divorce
When both spouses agree on the major issues, property division, custody, and support, an uncontested divorce can move quickly and with far less emotional and financial cost. We help clients finalize uncontested divorces efficiently while still making sure every agreement is fair, enforceable, and protects their long-term interests.
Contested divorce
When spouses disagree on key issues, a contested divorce requires a different level of preparation and advocacy. Chloe brings real trial experience to these cases, built on her background as an assistant city prosecutor litigating before judges and juries. When negotiation and mediation do not resolve the disagreement, she is fully prepared to take your case to court and fight for the outcome you deserve.
What is at stake in your divorce
Property division
Texas is a community property state, which means most property acquired during the marriage is subject to division between both spouses. This can include the family home, retirement accounts, vehicles, businesses, and debt. Property division is rarely as simple as splitting everything fifty fifty, and the way assets are characterized, classified, and valued can dramatically affect what you walk away with. We work to protect what you have built and make sure marital property is divided fairly under Texas law.
Spousal support
Whether you may be entitled to spousal maintenance, or whether you may be asked to pay it, spousal support is one of the most contested issues in many Dallas divorces. Texas law sets specific eligibility requirements and limits around spousal maintenance, and we help clients understand exactly where they stand and advocate for an outcome that reflects their actual financial circumstances and needs.
Children and custody
When children are involved, divorce becomes about more than two people separating. It becomes about protecting their stability, their relationships with both parents, and their future. We work to secure custody and visitation arrangements that genuinely serve your children’s best interests while protecting your rights as a parent.
Debt division
Debt acquired during a marriage does not disappear in divorce, and how it gets divided can have lasting financial consequences. We make sure debt division is handled fairly and that you are not left carrying more than your share.
