You have been engaged by a family law firm that specializes in representing women exclusively in divorce proceedings across Texas. You are helping turn their divorce pleadings into template sets. You were given a Sample Testimony For Divorce with Children with the the instructions that the firm wants the template to be able to accommodate divorces involving families with up to three minor children. You are also advised that the request for name change portion should be optional because petitioners do not always request a name change in connection with their divorce.

Try to set up the template yourself. Remember to follow the recommended sequence: (1) prep the template; (2) insert the fields; (3) build and insert the conditions; (4) test the template to make sure it is functioning; and (5) make any necessary edits (and test again!).
