Divorce Better – Houston, TX

A Modern Approach to Uncontested Divorce

Divorce Better is a forward-thinking law firm in Houston, Texas, that is disrupting the traditional, adversarial model of family law. Founded by attorney and certified mediator Anne Garcia, the firm was created with a specific goal: to provide families with a "cheaper, faster, and healthier" way to dissolve their marriages. Located in the Theater District of Downtown Houston, Divorce Better specializes in uncontested divorce and mediation, offering a flat-fee structure that removes the financial unpredictability of hourly billing. The firm operates on the belief that most couples prefer to decide their own future rather than having a judge decide for them. By prioritizing cooperation over conflict, Divorce Better helps families transition to their next chapter with their dignity and finances intact.

Affordable and Transparent Legal Services

The firm’s business model is built around transparency and efficiency. Unlike traditional firms that require massive retainers, Divorce Better offers:

• Flat Fee Divorce: A set price (often starting around $1,400) that covers the drafting and filing of all necessary legal documents for agreed divorces.
• Mediation Services: Professional mediation to help couples resolve disputes over property, debt, and children without going to court.
• Fast Resolution: Finalizing divorces in as little as 60 days (the mandatory Texas waiting period), compared to the year-long battles of contested litigation.
• Custom Solutions: Tailoring agreements to the specific needs of the family rather than adhering to rigid standard possession orders.
