Audu Law Firm handles divorce, divorce mediation, child custody, child support and enforcement, parenting plans, spousal maintenance, modifications, property division, domestic violence matters, relocation, CPS cases, adoptions, and same-sex family law. Divorce and child custody form the core of the practice, with a particular focus on complex property division and high-asset divorce — cases involving business interests, retirement accounts, and significant marital estates that require detailed financial analysis to reach a fair result.
Audu Law Firm handles family-based immigration, citizenship and naturalization, green card applications, fiancé(e) visas, student visas, work visas including H-1B, waivers, and VAWA petitions for domestic violence survivors. Family-based immigration and naturalization make up the core of the practice, with the remaining matters — visas, waivers, and VAWA cases — handled as they arise for clients navigating the broader immigration process.

Family law disputes are stressful because they’re unpredictable. Attorney Audu reduces that uncertainty by building a clear, documented strategy from day one — outlining what to expect, what evidence matters, and what outcome is realistic under Texas law. Clients are never left guessing about next steps or where their case stands. Structure and preparation are what turn stress into control.
Yes. Texas courts have specific enforcement mechanisms for violations of custody, visitation, and support orders, including contempt actions. If your spouse is non-compliant, Attorney Audu files the appropriate enforcement motion, documents the violation, and pursues remedies through the court — including make-up time, modified terms, or sanctions where warranted.
Outside experts are brought in when the case calls for it — not as a default. In high-asset property division, that may mean a forensic accountant or business valuator. In contested custody matters, it may mean a custody evaluator or child psychologist. Attorney Audu identifies early whether expert testimony strengthens your position and brings in the right specialist at the right stage of litigation.
The H-1B is employer-driven — you cannot self-petition. Your employer registers you electronically during the March registration window and pays a registration fee. As of February 2026, selection is no longer a pure random draw — USCIS now uses a wage-weighted lottery, meaning higher-paid positions receive more entries and a better chance of selection under the annual cap. If selected, your employer has a defined window to file the full labor and visa petition. A separate fee applies to certain new H-1B petitions filed for workers outside the U.S. — that fee was struck down by a federal court in June 2026 and is now under appeal, so its status is unresolved. Given how much has changed in this process, timing and strategy matter more than ever.
Citizenship and naturalization, green cards, family-based immigration, student visas, fiancé(e) visas, waivers, H1-B visas for workers, and VAWA domestic violence petitions.
No. Uncontested divorces, where both spouses agree on the terms, typically move faster and cost significantly less than contested, litigated divorces.
Prepare a few notes beforehand rather than a rehearsed speech, schedule the conversation at a time without other pressures like bedtime, be honest rather than softening hard truths, and expect it to be an ongoing conversation rather than a single talk. Give deference to any special needs or sensitivities. For younger children or those showing signs of prolonged distress, a licensed child counselor or family therapist can help them process the change in ways parents alone often cannot.
