Property Division Appeals

In a Texas divorce, the division of property is more than just splitting assets — it can determine your financial stability for years to come. While the law requires a division that is “just and right,”courts sometimes make mistakes that result in unfair or legally flawed outcomes. If you believe your divorce property division was mishandled, you may have the right to challenge it through an appeal.

When You Can Appeal a Custody or Visitation Order in Texas

Not every unfavorable ruling qualifies for an appeal. In Texas, appeals must be based on legal errors, not simply disagreement with the judge’s decision. Common reasons for appealing include:

Incorrect Classification of Property

Marital assets wrongly labeled as separate property or vice versa.

Misvaluation of Assets

Property or business interests valued incorrectly, impacting the overall division.

Challenging Omitted Marital Assets in Texas Divorce Appeals

Failure to include certain marital property in the division.

Improper Debt Allocation

Assigning debts in a way that is not legally fair.

Violation of Texas Family Code Standards

Failure to follow legal requirements for a “just and right” division.

Judicial Bias or Procedural Errors

Unfair treatment or mistakes that affected the case outcome.
