Common legal issues involving military divorces
There are many legal issues that often come up during military divorces. Some of the most common - and most complex - include:
- Child custody/parenting plan for active military personnel deployed overseas.
- Child support and custody/parenting plan for military personnel transferred to a different military base.
- Alimony/maintenance payments for retired military personnel who receive a military pension.
- Alimony/maintenance payments for disabled military personnel who receive disability pay.
- Tax implications of divorce involving military personnel.
Some military financial compensation is exempt from divorce settlements, including certain disability compensation in certain circumstances. That's why it's critical that you consult with an attorney before you sign any divorce settlement agreement.
