Does all paperwork have to be corrected if it shows my maiden middle name instead of middle used when married?

This a good question. It appears as though you are the Respondent in the divorce. You may have filed an Original Answer or simply signed a waiver of service to let the court know you were notified of the divorce proceedings. However, it is important to note that your responsibility doesn't end there. Your divorce decree must specifically state that you are seeking to restore the use of your maiden name. Otherwise, you will have to go through the judicial name change process after the divorce has become final. Your best bet is to schedule a consultation with a local divorce lawyer to review the documents your ex wants you to sign.

Why does she have a right to my property here while I am legally bound to pay her alimony?

Answered by attorney Kimberly Demetrice French (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Kimberly D. Moss, PLLC
There is no such thing as legal separation in the state of Texas. I strongly recommend you schedule a consultation with a family attorney in the State of Texas to determine whether or not your wife actually got a divorce or under what circumstances a judge ordered you to pay child support if you two are still married. If you're only separated (not legally divorced), then yes your wife would need to sign the paperwork for you to purchase a home, so it is imperative that you get divorced as soon as you can to make sure you are the only one legally benefiting from this transaction.

My wife and are agreeing to divorce, but she got a top notch lawyer now, do I need one too?

I advise you hire a lawyer. Her lawyer has no obligation to even ifnform you about what the court would normally do or what your rights are.  Even for a divorce when parties agree on most terms, there are usually terms on which the spouses differ.  Then the only solution is mediation or a trial. You will want a lawyer with you at mediation and at trial.  You will have your rights and interests better protected with a lawyer on your side.  Regarding possession of your child: If the child is age three or over, Texas courts will grant you possession of your child under the expanded standard possession order. That allows overnights with you the first, third and fifth weekends of every month Friday afternoon through Monday morning with pick up and return at your child's school.  You also are allowed possession on Thursday overnight to Friday morning, again from school dismissal to school return on Friday.  Thursdays are every week during the school year. You should also get time during Thanksgiving week and the Christmas break, so please at least consult a lawyer to learn more about your rights and schedule.
