Serving Military Families in Pearland, Katy, Pasadena, The Woodlands, and Sugar Land
Every person going through a divorce knows there could be significant hurdles ahead. If you are involved in a military divorce, the challenges can be even greater. Speak with a lawyer who understands the rights and options of service members, their spouses and their children. It will make the process simpler and quicker, so you can move forward.
I am Houston divorce attorney Philip Placzek. As a member of the family law section of the Houston Bar Association and Texas Bar Association, I understand the wide range of concerns facing America's military families, including the division of military retirement benefits in divorce. I can help you through this difficult process today.
Attorney Trained in Mediation
From the division of marital property to child custody and support, there are some issues that all families face in the divorce process. My job is to help you address those matters in a way that protects your rights and the people you love. As a trained mediator, I encourage all my clients to take control of the divorce process through mediation, but when that is not possible, I protect their rights in court as well.
Protecting servicemen and servicewomen based in Lackland, Fort Hood, Galveston and across Texas, I understand the rights and options of America's military personnel and their family members. For example, according to the SCRA (Servicemember Civil Relief Act) Protection, if you are fighting overseas, your spouse cannot divorce you until your deployment is over.
I can address the following concerns in your military divorce:
- Residences and jurisdiction
- Retirement benefits division
- Visitation issues
