Experienced, Passionate And Dedicated To Protecting Your Future

Whether you serve in the military or you are employed as a federal civilian employee, life is far more complex than it is for others. This is particularly true when it comes to your divorce.

With nearly five decades of experience, half as an Air Force Military Attorney (JAG) and the other half litigating exclusively as a family law attorney, I founded John Camp Law, LLC, to use my experience and knowledge to find the best solutions for military divorces or a divorce involving federal civil servants. You can count on me to help you through this difficult time. I will work with you and your attorney to resolve the unique challenges you are facing with child custody matters, property division and enforcement of child support and alimony orders. I have a fire-tested reputation as a skilled trial attorney and as a talented negotiator that can only come from thousands of trials and mediations involving high asset and complex divorces.

Skilled Legal Guidance For Complex Divorce Cases

When divorce appears on the horizon, attorneys representing military and federal civil servant families need a legal advisor who is knowledgeable and experienced in advising their lead counsels on federal retirement benefits that may become the focus of litigation. Four military retirement plans and two civil service retirement systems, each with their own set of formulas and agency regulations. Beyond the intricacies of these benefits and systems, even the simple act of serving legal process on a soldier or civilian employee can be complicated if they are serving overseas.

These matters are complex, but they are not impossible to resolve. With the proper guidance from an experienced legal professional, you can move past this challenging time with confidence that your best interests and your future will be properly protected.

Testimonials

I was lost in the OPM process of processing a court order from prior divorce. I couldn’t find anyone who could help me. Finally, an Attorney from Gainesville, Georgia suggested that I contact Attorney John Camp. In the first moments of our consult, I immediately felt a huge sigh of relief! After we concluded, I remember thinking to myself… “where was this guru of knowledge and skills twelve years ago, when I needed his expertise and thoroughness!”

I value John’s judgment and respect his opinion. He would patiently listen to all my thoughts, fears and anxious concerns. He heard them and did not discount them or discourage me. He offered me encouragement, and shined a light through the darkness of having to deal with OPM. What a relief!

John loves what he does and it reflects in his actions. I can’t say enough about him other than he is a true professional, reliable, and dedicated attorney. I felt that a certain rapport was developed between us, and I will not hesitate to call out to John again should I require legal advice in this matter.

Testimonials

I and many other Atlanta area attorneys, who specialize in family law, consider John Camp the “go-to guy” when a case involves federal civil service or military divorce. Federal Retirements are a world unto itself, and a trap for those unwary attorneys who enter into it without special guidance. John is the person who can educate a Family Law Attorney and their client to avoid costly pitfalls.
 
John has been an inestimable aid to me on countless occasions. I wouldn’t think of entering a case involving military or federal civil service law issues without his assistance. He always conducts himself with good grace, a sense of humor, and endless patience. My clients appreciate him as much as I do for his expert counsel.
 
I highly recommend John Camp without reservation for help in federal retirement issues. Bring him into the case early so he can assist you in finding all of those retirement benefits for your client!

Testimonials

I am retired from the United States Marine Corps and also a 100% Disabled Veteran from my service in Afghanistan and Iraq. My ex-wife and I had a simple divorce in 2017. I thought all was finished, and then in 2022 she hired a big Atlanta Law Firm to come after me for being in contempt of our divorce agreement. It all had to do with my Veterans Disability Benefits and also being awarded Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC), which reduced my military retired pay. I could find no one to help me as most divorce lawyers are clueless on Military Divorce Cases. Through several referrals, I found John Camp at John Camp Law. What a difference talking to someone who “knows their stuff” about this area! In no time he had my issues clearly identified and explained them to me in detail. He then proposed a plan of action for me to defend against the contempt. He associated a talented Atlanta Attorney to do the litigation work. The two of them were awesome! Talk about “Shock and Awe”…. one letter to my Ex’s Atlanta Lawyer extinguished their case! As a Marine I learned that “one good shot can cause your adversary to tuck-tail and run.” Well Mr. Camp and my attorney knew just how to fire that one shot … and my problems were over! Don’t be fooled by those who claim to know about Military Divorce. So often they are after your business and your money because they really don’t know what they are doing. When your back is up against the wall, you don’t have time to have an inexperienced attorney feel their way through the darkness to try and help you. Go for the best…Go for the knowledge….go for John Camp Law!
