Where The Military Community Turns for Veteran Family Law Attorneys

With extensive civilian litigation and military law (JAG) experience, we know the tremendous impact a family law case has on military families, careers, and futures. In fact, we were found by former JAGs specifically because on-base military attorneys know too little about family courts and off-base civilian family lawyers know too little about the military.

We solve this problem by ensuring that every military client - service member or spouse - we represent in a family case has an experienced former military lawyer assigned to their case. Simply put, no other family law firm is as skilled, focused, or equipped to handle your military family law case. Book a free case screening call now to learn how we can help.

Top-Rated Military Family Law Attorneys | Serving Every Legal Need

If you don't yet know, military divorce is different from civilian divorce. Unique issues concerning the division of military pensions and entitlement benefits like BAH, BAS, COLA, commissary privileges, and disability benefits must be constantly considered throughout the divorce process or important benefits could be lost. Most civilian family law attorneys only occasionally see these issues, but in our military centric firm, we deal with them every day!

Military child custody, child support, and visitation cases are also vastly different from civilian cases. The (UCMJ) requires military members to pay “adequate support” to their dependents (spouse and children) and therefore adverse action can be taken against a member for failing to pay child support during a military divorce proceeding.
