Family Lawyer Handling Military Divorce

From Offices in San Diego, Serving Clients in California and Overseas

Even for members of the US Military, divorce is a matter handled by state civil courts - not military courts. Still, though military divorces happen in the same court system as all other divorces, they are not the same as other divorces.

At the law firm of Anthony C. Starks, Attorney at Law, in San Diego, California, I understand these differences. I have been a family law attorney for more than 25 years. During this time, I have encountered the full range of legal issues that can arise in any type of divorce, and I can use this knowledge to effectively protect you rights and interests in a military divorce.

Attorney Who Understand the Unique Challenges of Military Divorce

I understand the unique challenges posed by a military divorce. I often represent clients who are stationed overseas, communicating with these clients through email, phone, postal mail or fax. Clients do not have to come to my offices, or even to the state of California.

In addition to differences in physical location though, military divorce requires consideration of many factors that are not as important in other divorce cases. Child custody is often a concern in any divorce, but in military divorce this can be an especially difficult issue. Military parents may need to prepare for frequent relocation. This is something that should be considered when establishing the terms of the divorce.

Property division is also a significant issue in military divorce. A military retirement plan can be an incredibly valuable asset, and this may be divided between you and your spouse. Other military benefits may impact property division, spousal support and child support arrangements.

I have extensive experience handling military divorce cases, and can effectively resolve all of your legal concerns. No matter where you are in the world, I can assist you. Contact me today to discuss your legal troubles.
