In property division law, before dividing property, your lawyer must first determine whether it is community property or separate property. Community property is generally considered anything that was obtained during the marriage and is owned by both spouses, and as such is subject to division. Separate property is anything a spouse may have had before marriage. It can also include gifts given to only one spouse. Separate property isn’t subject to division; it goes entirely to the spouse who owns it. While the distinction between the two seems clear enough, there is enough nuance involved that consulting a property division attorney is generally beneficial.
Finding a good lawyer can help with more than just the specifics of determining community and separate property. An experienced attorney can also help make sure that all parties divide the property fairly. They can protect your rights and help guide you through the entire process.

In Texas, there may be specific statutes that impose a duty of care in your situation. Someone may be legally obligated to senior care.
