Navigating a military divorce requires a precise understanding of the unique benefits and regulations that service members face. The division of assets, including military pensions, isn’t as simple as splitting civilian property. Under the Service Members Civil Relief Act (SCRA) and the Uniformed Services Former Spouses' Protection Act (USFSPA), your retirement and benefits could be subject to complex legal frameworks.
We execute a tactical approach to protect your military benefits—including your Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing), and military retirement. These assets require specialized handling to ensure they are fairly divided while keeping your financial future intact.
When it comes to child support, our team carefully factors in the nuances of military pay, including special allowances and bonuses, to develop a strategic plan that supports your child while preserving your ability to provide for yourself.
Whether you’re protecting your hard-earned retirement or navigating the intricacies of child support and military pensions, we’re here to defend your interests with precision and expertise.
The Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) is a crucial piece of legislation designed to protect active-duty service members from certain legal actions that could interfere with their military duties, including during divorce proceedings. The SCRA provides a range of protections that ensure service members can focus on their military responsibilities without the pressure of unresolved legal issues.
Delay of Court Proceedings:
If a service member is on active duty and cannot attend court hearings due to their military obligations, the SCRA allows them to request a stay (delay) of legal proceedings, including divorce cases, for at least 90 days. This prevents default judgments from being made in their absence.
Protection from Default Judgments:
In typical civilian cases, if one spouse fails to respond to divorce filings, a court could issue a default judgment. Under the SCRA, service members are protected from such judgments if their military service prevents them from responding to legal action in a timely manner.
Reduced Interest on Pre-Service Debt:
The SCRA limits the interest rate on debts incurred before entering military service, including obligations that may come into question during a divorce. Interest rates on debts, such as mortgages or loans, are capped at 6% while the service member is on active duty.
Protections Against Eviction and Foreclosure:
During a divorce, if a military family is facing financial difficulties, the SCRA provides additional protections, ensuring that service members cannot be evicted from rental housing or have their home foreclosed upon without a court order, even if they are behind on payments.
The SCRA doesn’t exempt a service member from divorce proceedings, but it ensures they have adequate time to respond and participate, even while deployed. This is critical for ensuring that decisions regarding child custody, spousal support, and division of military benefits are fair and not rushed due to their military service.
Our firm is well-versed in the intricacies of the SCRA and how it applies to military divorce cases. We leverage these protections to ensure that your rights and interests are safeguarded, no matter where you are stationed.
