Frequently Asked Questions
What types of family law cases do you handle?
We handle a wide range of family law cases, including divorce, child custody, child support, alimony, prenuptial agreements, and domestic violence protection orders.
How is child custody determined in Maryland?
Maryland courts base child custody decisions on the best interests of the child. Factors include parental fitness, the child’s preference (if old enough), stability, and the ability of each parent to provide a safe and supportive environment.
What is the difference between contested and uncontested divorce?
In an uncontested divorce, both spouses agree on all key issues, such as asset division, child custody, and support. A contested divorce occurs when disagreements require court intervention to resolve disputes. Both contested and uncontested divorces benefit from a family attorney’s representation.
How is child support calculated in Maryland?
Maryland uses a formula based on both parents’ incomes, the number of children, healthcare costs, daycare expenses, and other relevant factors to determine child support obligations.
How long does the divorce process take in Baltimore?
An uncontested divorce may take as little as a few months, while a contested divorce can take a year or more, depending on court schedules and the complexity of the case. A family attorney can help speed along a divorce proceeding.
What is the purpose of a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement?
These agreements protect individual assets, clarify financial responsibilities, and outline terms for asset division in case of divorce. They ensure that personal property, businesses, and inheritances remain with the original owner if the marriage ends.
Can a prenup or postnup help prevent legal disputes?
Yes, by clearly defining asset division and financial responsibilities, these agreements reduce conflicts and costly legal battles in a divorce.
Can grandparents get custody or visitation rights in Maryland?
Yes, under certain circumstances. Grandparents may seek custody or visitation if they can prove it is in the child’s best interest and that denying access would cause harm.
Do I need a lawyer for my family law case?
While you are not legally required to have an attorney, family law cases can be complex. A lawyer can protect your rights, guide you through legal procedures, and advocate for the best outcome for you and your family.
