If at least one spouse is active in the United States Military (Armed Forces) you will be doing what is often referred to as a "Military Divorce".
An uncontested "Military Divorce" is very similar to a standard uncontested divorce, except for a few additional statements or clauses which are included in the documents. These statements or clauses pertain specifically to the provisions of 50 App. Section 520, Civil Relief Act of 1940 and pursuant to the Soldier's and Sailor's Civil Relief Act of 1940. The Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940 ("SSCRA") was designed to safeguard and protect the interests of persons in the military service. The intent of Congress was to give peace of mind to the service person by granting special protections to his or her rights and property interests while he or she labors in the service of the country. The provisions of the Act allow the soldier or sailor to have his legal rights secured until he or she can return from the military to defend him or herself. In plain words, "The act protects a soldier's legal rights while serving the country, therefore not permitting a spouse to get a divorce without his or her knowledge." This Act has been in force continually since 1940. It applies at all times not just when the U.S. is at war. The primary benefits are granted directly to persons in the military service. "Person in military service" is defined to include full-time members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, officers of the Public Health Service (when detailed by proper authority for duty with the Army or Navy), and those persons who are on active duty with the reserves or the National Guard. For those full time members of the five branches of the service, the protections apply from the date of entry into the military; for those who are in the reserves or the National Guard, the protections start when they are called up to active duty. The period of military service terminates with the date of discharge from active service or death while in active service.

A Simple Divorce Process
Recent Feedback:
"I had a very amicable divorce and this web site was perfect for our needs. I heard nightmares from my friends on the cost of getting a divorce and since my ex and I were in agreement I didn't feel that it was necessary to send someone else's kids to college. The step by step approach made it very easy for me to complete all of the necessary forms. I was a little nervous that I was missing something because it seemed a little too easy."
~ Stephen S., Pennsylvania
"Great service! Our divorce was very friendly and simple, but we are in different areas of the country, so this was easy to use because both of us could access it and update it. Plus it saved us about $2000! Thanks for providing the service and the help with our questions."
~ David H., California
"A thousand kudos to you and your professional staff and excellent service. Without your help I would have spent thousands of dollars for no good reason. The documents were prepared without flaw, and my divorce was granted on the terms that were agreed upon without any problems whatsoever. The time frame from initial filing to final decree was less than a month."
~ Michael D., New York
