Protect your
financial future

 Whether you’re seeking alimony for yourself or contesting unfair amounts, the experienced alimony attorneys at the Summit Family Law are ready to protect your financial future and fight on your behalf. 

An unfair divorce settlement can ruin your financial stability.

 You’ve spent a lifetime building your world, and the last thing you need is to be thrown into a confusing legal minefield that jeopardizes it.

Unlike child support, alimony is discretionary, and the court determines the amount. No standard calculation is used, meaning that an attorney is necessary for addressing alimony matters and amounts awarded, which vary widely by county and judge.

Don’t get trapped in an unfair agreement that puts you in financial straits.

The team from Summit Family Law is ready to face the challenges that arise with alimony issues and help you build the best case possible to establish financial freedom and independence.

State Jurisdiction

 Understand where to file and when. While federal military divorce laws allow somebody to file in the state where they are stationed or where the nonmilitary spouse currently lives, each state has its own rules determining when and how to file. Without the help of experienced divorce lawyers, choosing where to file your divorce can get complicated and lead to lengthy delays.

Retirement

 Civilian retirement account divisions are typically completed through a Qualified Domestic Relations Order. However, this may not be acceptable with a military pension. Instead, military benefits depend on the length of the marriage, military service, and the overlapping years between the two. 

Divorce is messy, but it doesn’t have to be financially devastating.

Child and Spousal Support

Determining alimony and childcare can be difficult in typical circumstances, but it’s even more complex in military divorces. The courts will consider military service for spousal maintenance and childcare, making it vital to have a military divorce attorney to help you navigate the system.

Professional Resources

A couple’s retirement can often be one of the largest assets to be divided upon divorce. Ensuring that the proper valuation is achieved as well as the proper strategy on drafting the actual award are crucial to ensure a party is taken care of upon retirement.
