What to Expect in a Maryland Divorce
Every divorce is different. Some are resolved through negotiated settlement. Others require litigation and court involvement. From the beginning, we help you understand:
The grounds for divorce in Maryland
- How marital property and debts may be divided
- How child custody and parenting schedules are determined
- How child support is calculated
- Whether spousal support may be awarded
Early decisions can significantly affect the outcome of your case. Our role is to walk you through the process step by step so you understand your options before making major decisions.
Protecting Your Finances During Divorce
Divorce is not only emotional, it is financial. Bank accounts, retirement assets, business interests, real estate, and debts must all be addressed. In some cases, one spouse may attempt to move, hide, or improperly spend marital funds before the divorce is finalized.
We act quickly when necessary to protect our clients’ financial interests. Whether that involves negotiating fair property division, conducting discovery to uncover hidden assets, or filing emergency motions with the court, we are prepared to take decisive action when needed.
Child Custody and Parenting Issues
For many parents, custody is the most important issue in a divorce. Maryland courts decide custody based on the best interests of the child. We help parents develop practical parenting plans, advocate for meaningful time with their children, and pursue modifications when circumstances change.
Our focus is on protecting your relationship with your child while working toward stability and long‑term solutions.
