Buffalo Military Divorce Attorney

Military divorce lawyer serving the Buffalo metropolitan area

Are you a member of the U.S. Armed Forces who is seeking a divorce? At the Law Offices of Randy S. Margulis, I provide servicemen and servicewomen with top-quality representation in military divorces. I have nearly 20 years of experience handling these cases for military members, and know how to protect your assets and benefits from your former spouse. There are certain government-imposed restrictions on divorce, and I utilize these rules and laws to secure the best possible results in your case.

Protecting your assets is my top priority

Divorce proceedings involving military members are much different than traditional New York divorces. Although the grounds for divorce remain the same, issues involving spousal maintenance, property division and child support are dealt with in a different manner.

In addition, military servicemembers enjoy certain protections that ordinary civilians do not enjoy in family law proceedings. When on active duty, the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act protects military members from lawsuits, including divorces. Government restrictions also make it difficult for former spouses to share in certain benefits. The Uniformed Services Former Spouse’s Protection Act prevents ex-spouses from being awarded retirement benefits unless they were married for at least ten years while their spouse was on active duty. I make it my mission to protect your assets throughout the divorce process and ensure that your children are well taken care of.
