Lawyers Who Understand Military Parents' Concerns
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, and we are here to help you. We are a team of experienced family law attorneys with the knowledge and resources to help military parents with difficult family law matters in Massachusetts.
Helping Clients Participate in Their Children's Lives
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 about the most effective ways 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.
Representation for Custody, Support and Modifications
The federal government oversees some aspects of military divorces, so it is important to hire a lawyer who is familiar with the interplay between federal and state law. The law also requires that members of the military support their families following divorce through spousal and child support.
Our law firm can help when you have concerns during your deployment about:
- Child custody
- Visitation
- Child support
- A modification to a family law court order
Our lawyers understand how federal law affects military family law matters. We also have a deep understanding of Massachusetts family law and the specific procedures that each court in the state follows. We can help you ensure that your rights and your children are protected.
