Texas Military Family Law Attorney

Lawyer in Collin County Helping Service Members with Divorce and Child-Related Issues

Family law cases involving a spouse in the military are unique and vastly more complex than others. Always emotional, when divorce or child custody disputes become an issue for a military family, the challenges can seem insurmountable.

The military family law attorneys at the Law Office of Linda Risinger in Frisco have successfully handled family law matters for spouses and members of the U.S. military for over 30 years in Collin County, Denton County and surrounding areas.

We help service members and spouses of service members do what is best for themselves and their children. We understand military law and its complexities thoroughly.

Our attorneys are qualified to handle the unique family law matters of military parents, including:

• Contested and uncontested divorce
• Child support
• Child custody and visitation
• Alimony
• Housing allowance
• Medical benefits
• Retirement benefits

Experience And Judgment Make a Difference

We understand the complex nature of military divorce, retirement benefits, medical benefits (including TRICARE), the implications of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) and the special considerations necessary for child custody and visitation during deployment.

We recognize the challenges faced by stay-at-home spouses in securing child support based on guidelines set by the military or the Supreme Court of Texas, and we work diligently to find solutions.

We also understand that children should not be cut off from their extended families just because mom or dad is deployed. In fact, it may be more important for these ties to be strengthened during deployment, as these family members understand and share concerns.
