Military Divorce

La Mesa Military Divorce Lawyer

Serving El Cajon, Lemon Grove & the Surrounding Areas

When it comes to divorce involving a member of the military, it is advised that you seek legal counsel from an experienced La Mesa divorce attorney. I have been providing legal representation to Southern California residents for over 25 years. By combining years of experience with extensive knowledge of divorce proceedings and family law, I am able to help you navigate through the complexities of military divorce.

Much like a conventional, civilian divorce, the process of a military divorce involves the following steps:

  • The petitioner decides on how to end the marriage (divorce, legal separation, or annulment)
  • Paperwork must be filed by the petitioner
  • The petitioner has someone serve the forms to the spouse, now called "the respondent"
  • The respondent can contest the divorce if he or she so chooses
  • If the respondent does not contest, then the courts can end the marriage
  • If the respondent contests the divorce, then other legal steps must take place
  • Additional legal steps include an exchange of financial documents for the judge's consideration

You deserve quality counsel and compassionate, personalized attention during your divorce. Call my office at (619) 304-8499 to discover how I can help you.

    Andrea worked with me prior to my birth and then right after I had my son to come up with a custody agreement/parenting plan.
