Anyone going through a divorce will have to face a number of emotional and legal difficulties. If you or your spouse is a member of the military, the divorce process is even more complex. From military benefits to the division or property, an experienced attorney can help you through the entire process. At the Bentley Law Offices, P.C. , we help individuals throughout Pennsylvania going through military divorces.
We have worked with many soldiers and war veterans and spouses of war veterans who are going through a divorce when one party is still serving in the military. In addition to helping our military clientele through the divorce process, we can help by establishing powers of attorney for our clients, so we can act in their best legal interest when they are away serving.
Military members have to deal with traditional divorce concerns, plus legal concerns specific to military members. By law, military benefits and pensions must go to spouses as well. We will make sure you understand your rights and options when it comes to the following rules governing military divorce:
- Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA)
- The Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act (SSCRA)
- Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection Act (USFSPA)
