When one or both parents are in the military, child custody and visitation matters can be particularly complex in military divorce cases. If one or both parents are required to move regularly, it can be difficult to establish equitable custody and visitation arrangements. Although courts will still look to the best interests of the children when making decisions, there are many laws that can impact each parent's rights. In order to give yourself the best chance of achieving your goals, you need a San Diego military child custody lawyer with a complete understanding of how military rules and regulations can impact child custody and visitation issues.

Even if You Are Deployed Overseas, You Still Have Rights
Child custody and visitation issues can be especially complicated when one parent is deployed to Afghanistan or Iraq. If you are deployed, you may need to modify your child custody and visitation arrangements to allow you and your children to maintain a relationship. California adheres to the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA). Under the UCCJEA, if California has jurisdiction over a child custody action, it retains jurisdiction even when a parent is deployed overseas. Our San Diego military child custody lawyers can help you develop child custody and visitation arrangements that will work for your children and for you.
