Gay & Lesbian Family Law in Dallas, TX
The national perspective on same-sex marriage continues to change as advocates and supporters have won significant, legislative victories in several states. In June 2015, The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution guarantees the right to marriage for all Americans, effectively legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide.
Attorney Michelle May O'Neil has been a staunch supporter of gay and lesbian rights since the beginning of her career and was the first attorney to win a case in a Texas appellate court granting standing to sue for a non-biological parent. Our entire time continues to exemplify that same dedication and advocacy for the gay and lesbian community, especially now that their marriage rights have finally been recognized nationwide.

"I walked away with all of the core outcomes I sought to achieve."
I highly recommend O'Neil Wysocki for those seeking family law representation for difficult, high-conflict child custody and divorce related challenges. If you are seeking 50/50 or greater custody, are a male, and the opposing party is making false allegations, you can win with O'Neil Wysocki. It was a long and grueling process, but I walked away with all of the core outcomes I sought to achieve. The team I worked with was Elizabeth Barr, David Wynne, and Angelia Rightmer, and I will continue to retain them for my family law needs.- D.P. -
"Unwavering Dedication!"
Throughout this trying ordeal, my ex-husband employed below-the-belt schemes, relentless lies, false accusations, and slanderous attacks in an attempt to discredit me and obstruct justice. In the face of such adversity, Mr. Wysocki, Ms. Conklin, and their team displayed unwavering dedication, integrity, and legal prowess.
My lawyers have transcended their roles as legal representatives to become an integral part of my support system, akin to family. Their attentiveness, unwavering support, and meticulous battle plans exemplify their dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for their clients.
