Military Family Law

When a military family goes through a divorce, there are unique circumstances that influence decisions and outcomes.

• Divorce- What If I am out of country?
• Military retirement benefits in divorce (Domestic Relations Order)
• Child support – How is it calculated?
• Child custody – What happens if you go TDY? What if you are assigned to a foreign country? How do you handle long distance visitation?
• Spousal support (alimony)
• Health benefits for children and ex-spouses after divorce
• Division of property (assets and debts)
• Post-divorce changes to court orders
