Why Firefighter Divorce is Different

When it comes to dissolving a marriage between a firefighter and their spouse, a number of factors come into play that may not be relevant in a “typical” divorce. Here are some of those issues that you may encounter in a firefighter divorce that require extra consideration:

• Child custody scheduling: If you or your spouse work a non traditional schedule involving 24 or 48 hour shifts then you need to be able to get creative when it comes to the creation of a possession order for your children.
• Division of a pension: Will you be eligible to draw from a pension when you retire from being a firefighter? If so, division of a pension operates differently than division of a 401(K).
• Conservatorship of your children: Just because you work a non traditional job with non traditional hours does not mean that you have a take a backseat to your spouse when it comes to being able to make decisions on behalf of your children.

Employing a strong willed, client-focused and experienced advocate in your divorce case is critical no matter if you are a firefighter or a firefighter’s spouse. When so much is at stake- including your children and your finances- leaving anything to chance is a risk not worth taking.
