If you are a parent deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan or another country overseas, you may be worried about keeping in touch with your child or children. If you are divorced or were never married to your child's other parent, you are probably even more concerned about child custody, child visitation and child support issues. At The Massachusetts Family Law Group, we understand your concerns.
Boston Military Divorce Attorneys
If your child has lived in Massachusetts for at least six months and you need legal guidance and representation while you are deployed overseas, we can assist you. As with many processes involving the military, there are unique obstacles and challenges involved in military divorces and child custody disputes.
At The Massachusetts Family Law Group, we advise military clients as to the best way to assert their rights to participate in their children's lives. Through detailed parenting plans, military parents are able to continue parenting their children from a distance more easily than ever before. Virtual visitation is one new and creative way parents can keep in touch with their children (no matter what their age).
The federal government oversees some aspects of military divorces, so it is important to hire a lawyer who is familiar with these intricacies. The law also requires that members of the military support their families following divorce through spousal and child support. To ensure you have fulfilled these requirements, consult a knowledgeable attorney.
