Legal Support for U.S. Service Members and Veterans
Members of the Army, National Guard, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard face unique challenges when they are going through a divorce or other legal issue. Logistically, any legal battle can be a challenge, especially for active service members stationed outside of their home state. You have defended, or are defending, our country. Let us defend your legal interests.
Oklahoma Military Family Law Attorney
As a member of the United States Army and National Guard, Tulsa military divorce lawyer J. Travis Barnett was deployed in Iraq in 2008. His work in the military and in civilian law has given him a unique insight into the issues faced by military members undergoing legal issues such as military divorce.
When you are going through the V.A. claims process or a domestic legal issue, you can benefit from hiring a civilian lawyer. The military's attorneys will be able to show you the forms to fill out, but they cannot guide you through the process. For knowledgeable guidance from a fellow service member and Oklahoma attorney, contact our law firm online or call 918-770-4583 or toll free 888-341-3169 today.
Military Divorce and Family Law
Going through an Oklahoma divorce is difficult enough without the added stress of distance. When you are deployed away from the legal proceeding, the logistics of your divorce case can seem difficult, if not impossible. Our Tulsa military divorce lawyers can help you stay in control of divorce and other family law proceedings and make the geographic distance irrelevant. We can handle any family law matter for members of the military and veterans, including:
Under the Service Members Civil Relief Act, active duty members can stay (or stop) a divorce or other family law matter while they are actively serving our country. We can help you file for a stay or, if available, request leave for your family law issues.
Representing Veterans Before the V.A.
The United States Department of Veterans Affairs and Oklahoma Department of Veterans Affairs ("V.A.") is underequipped to handle the sheer volume of claims they receive daily. Working with them to get the benefits you need can be frustrating.
In many cases, service members do not want to wrestle with the V.A. immediately — they just want to get home. Months later, they need the support of the V.A. Our veteran's rights lawyers offer counseling and advice to clients who find themselves in this situation. We also represent veterans with disability claims in V.A. administrative proceedings to ensure that they receive the benefits and medical care they are entitled to for their efforts defending our country.
