Types Of Family Law Matters We Handle

Family law encompasses a wide range of legal matters. These cases can be delicate to handle from a legal perspective because there are so many overwhelming emotions involved. We help keep you focused on your goals in cases like:

• Divorce. Our goal is to help you get the best possible settlement, from a good share of marital property to ensuring that you aren’t saddled with debts that aren’t yours. We want you to have the means for a bright future, including as much time with your children as you want. Our representation addresses every issue involved in a divorce settlement, including filing orders of protection.
• Child custody and support. Although a Maryland judge will make the final determination of whether a custody arrangement is in the shared child’s best interest, we can help you create a shared custody plan that is more convenient for your needs and wants. If your child is old enough, we can also work with you to consider their option of where to live.
• Adoption. While we cannot vet adoption agencies for you, we can help you understand what to look for to avoid common scams, prepare your application to adopt and all the other legal forms, and prepare for your home visit.

We can also help you with compliance with court orders. If you have a court order in place, like for child support or an order of protection, and the other party violates it, we can petition the judge to take action.
