Even if you are unsure that divorce is how you'd like to proceed, you can consult with us. Our firm works to provide zealous representation in matters of divorce. However, in matters where children are involved, we are mindful of the considerations involved in matters of child custody, child support, and visitation.
Contact our Largo, Maryland, family law attorney today to discuss your unique situation and how we can help. Especially when children are involved, we strike the right balance between zealously advocating for your case while maintaining a core sense of family.

No-Fault Divorce in Maryland
In Maryland, one can obtain a divorce based on voluntary or involuntary separation. In addition to those no fault grounds, there are grounds for divorce based on fault such as adultery, abuse, desertion and domestic violence. A divorce under these grounds can expedite the time it takes to get a divorce.
We can answer your questions about how long the divorce process will take and how contested and uncontested divorce differ. Generally speaking, a divorce is uncontested when parties decide on the following: how marital property or marital debt should be divided, support and custody, visitation arrangements for children. Contested divorce is more complicated. Before going into domestic relations practice, Attorney Jones worked for Lockheed Martin at the operating office of child support enforcement in Baltimore City, so much of the firm's background is in child support enforcement on the domestic side.
In both criminal law and family law issues, the sooner you consult an attorney, the better. Our family law attorney will work with you to prepare the separation agreement which makes everything easier along the line. Both parties will know what to expect. We can handle everything from a separation agreement to absolute divorce.
