Challenges In Military Divorce
Differences exist, most commonly a spouse based in a different country. However, the process of military divorce is similar to civilian marital dissolution. Specific areas include:
- Child custody and visitation – Working out a parenting plan with spouses living on a base or living in separate countries presents challenges. Still, all decisions are made in the best interests of the children while protecting the rights of our clients.
- Child support – We can draft or review child support orders based on military income and resources, ensuring compliance with the laws of the state where the child resides.
- Alimony or spousal support – If alimony is necessary for a spouse who sacrificed a career for a military husband or wife, we determine how much should be paid and how long spousal support should last.
- Property division – Equitable division of the debts and assets of a marriage could include military pensions.
We will take the time to get to know you and your situation. From there, we identify your specific goals and tailor our representation. Our objective is to get what you need while saving the time and expense of a trial.
