This presentation, by Laura Fowler of The Fowler Law Firm, is the result of representing many business owners, realtors who work with investors, and those who have spouses or significant others residing in Texas.

Texas has a unique version of common law marriage which can spontaneously arise from the simple fact of "publishing" to third parties that one is married. This happens more frequently than many realize. For example: when people take their significant other to family events and introduce them as their husband or wife, that's enough for Texas to consider them married. Beware of Thanksgiving and Christmas! 

If a relationship has soured, one side wants to sell the house they both live in and the other gets a smart lawyer to tell them about all their possible claims in Texas: ownership of assets, real personal assets, and intangible assets too. This is a gender-neutral issue but, often, women have expressed a keen interest to learn about this topic.

Remember, skunks are evolving right along with the rest of us!
