How to Split a Toaster: A Divorce Podcast About Saving Your Relationships

Divorce in the Military with Attorney Paul Phipps


Listen Later

Does dealing with divorce while in the military make it more complicated? Former US Army Military Policeman Paul Phipps, also an attorney at Nelson Law Group, joins Pete and Seth in this episode to discuss about the complexities of divorce when one or both of the parties are military members.

We talk acronyms – USFSPA and SMCRA, not to mention the 20/20/20 rule. How do they affect you? What happens when both parties in the divorce are in the military, and how is that different than if it’s just one? Where do you look for your jurisdiction? What happens if you’re deployed?

There’s a lot to cover, but Paul walks us through it today. Tune in!
