Divorce Lawyer for Women in Fort Worth
Divorce raises a particular set of worries for women: your finances, your children, the home, and what life looks like on the other side. Daniell Law Group helps women across Fort Worth and Tarrant County protect what matters and move toward a stable next chapter, with a litigator who has been there herself.
- Free, confidential consultation
- You work directly with Emily
- A litigator from intake to trial
Counsel that understands what you are protecting.
Every divorce is hard, but women often carry a specific weight into it. Worry about money, especially after years of building a life around a household rather than a paycheck. Worry about the children and how much time you will have with them. Worry about the house, your safety, and whether you can stand on your own once it is over.
Those worries are real, and they deserve a lawyer who takes them seriously. At Daniell Law Group, you work directly with Emily Daniell, a litigator who handles your case from the first call to the final decree. Emily knows what it is to rebuild after a divorce and to co-parent on the other side of one, and that experience shapes how she counsels the women she represents.
Texas law decides property, custody, and support on its own terms, and the outcome often turns on preparation. We help you understand your full financial picture, protect your separate property, build a strong case for your role as a parent, and avoid the early missteps that quietly cost women later.
We represent clients across the DFW Metroplex. This work sits inside our broader divorce practice and our Fort Worth divorce attorney page, and when children are involved, our child custody work becomes central.
What we help you protect
A divorce settles the things that shape the rest of your life. These are the priorities we focus on for the women we represent.

Protecting yourself from the start
The choices you make in the first weeks matter. A few steps, taken early and with guidance, put you in a far stronger position.
- 01
Understand the full financial picture
Know what you own and owe together: accounts, property, retirement, and debts, including the ones only in your spouse's name. Clarity here is the foundation of a fair division.
- 02
Secure your important documents
Gather records that prove what is yours and how things are held: statements, deeds, titles, tax returns, and anything tracing separate property. Documentation is your best protection.
- 03
Think through custody early
If you have children, start thinking about a schedule that works and the role you want to keep. Courts value stability, and an early, thoughtful plan strengthens your position.
- 04
Avoid the costly early mistakes
Do not move or hide money, do not sign anything you do not fully understand, and do not agree to a fast settlement that ignores a retirement account or a hidden debt. These missteps are hard to undo.
- 05
Build your case with the right advocate
With a clear picture and a steady advocate, you negotiate from strength rather than fear. We prepare every case carefully and keep you informed at each meaningful step.

Questions women ask us, answered
No. Texas law does not favor mothers or fathers. Courts decide custody, called conservatorship, based on the best interest of the child, and they generally start from the position that both parents should stay involved. A strong case is built on your role as a parent and the stability you provide, not on gender.
