About Lynda Landers

29 years of Texas family law. A focused, integrated approach to child support — from the initial calculation through enforcement and modification.

Lynda Landers, Attorney at Law

Lynda Landers has practiced family law in Texas for 29 years. She founded Landers Family Law with a simple purpose: to give Collin County families sound legal guidance during the most challenging periods of their lives. Child support — in all its forms — has been a constant thread through her practice.

Child support cases look simple on paper. A table, a percentage, a number. In practice, they involve contested income figures, disputed business expenses, medical support disputes, and enforcement battles that can stretch for years. Lynda has handled every phase: establishing initial orders in divorce and SAPCR cases, modifying orders when circumstances change, pursuing contempt against non-paying parents, and defending clients against enforcement actions where the claimed arrears are disputed.

An Integrated Approach

Lynda approaches family law cases the way a financial analyst would approach a balance sheet — with precision and attention to what the numbers actually say. In child support matters, this means:

  • Carefully reviewing how the other side calculated net resources — and identifying errors
  • Scrutinizing business deductions in self-employment cases
  • Presenting lifestyle evidence when income is being understated
  • Structuring orders clearly, so enforcement is straightforward if needed
  • Collaborating with forensic accountants and financial experts when the income picture is complex

Child support doesn't exist in isolation. It intersects with property division (who keeps the house affects monthly cash flow), custody and possession (who has the child and when affects the calculation), and tax planning (dependency exemptions, tax credit allocation). Lynda keeps all these threads in view when advising clients on any one of them.

Serving Collin County Families

Lynda handles child support matters in the family courts of Collin County, including the 256th, 380th, 401st, and 417th District Courts and the Collin County Court at Law. She represents clients from McKinney, Frisco, Plano, Allen, Prosper, Celina, Anna, Melissa, Princeton, Wylie, and throughout Collin County and North Texas.

She is admitted to practice in all Texas courts. Landers Family Law maintains its principal office in McKinney, convenient to the Collin County courthouse at 2100 Bloomdale Road in McKinney and accessible to clients throughout the county.

What Clients Can Expect

Lynda's practice is built on directness. When you consult with her, you get an honest assessment of your situation — the strengths, the weaknesses, and the realistic range of outcomes. She explains how Texas law applies to your facts, not just how it reads in the statute. She prepares carefully and communicates clearly, because clients who understand their case make better decisions.

Child support cases can move slowly through the court system or quickly, depending on the type of relief sought. Enforcement matters can often be calendared for hearing within weeks; modification trials on a contested case may take longer. Lynda will give you a realistic timeline based on the Collin County docket and the specific claims involved.
