Military & Federal Civil Pensions

Protecting Pensions, Retirements and Your Future

At the end of 20 years of military service to the nation, often the biggest asset a military family has in their possession is their federal pension. If that marriage breaks down, the issue of how to distribute and divide those federal pensions in divorce can become among the most difficult property distribution issues in a divorce settlement.

For clients who are pursuing a divorce later in life, perhaps even after the kids are grown, a military and civilian pension is more important than a house, cars or other property.

At the Law Office of Richard L. Downey, located in Fairfax, Virginia, we know how to help you protect federal pensions in divorce settlements to make sure your plans for your future stay on track.
