Unique Situations Call for Tailored Legal Solutions
Every family is different, and every client has unique concerns. My family law practice is devoted to finding solutions that meet my clients' individual needs and goals. Concentrating solely on family law since 1994, I have extensive experience handling family law matters including:
- Legal separation and separation agreements: If you and your spouse are thinking about separating, whether or not in contemplation of a divorce, a separation agreement (also known as a property settlement agreement) is an effective method for resolving issues in advance. Should a divorce occur, having this agreement in place allows for a more amicable and cost-effective split.
- Divorce: Maryland recognizes both no-fault and at-fault divorces. I handle both contested and uncontested divorces, offering experienced guidance on all related issues, from children to property division.
- Child custody and visitation: I work closely with clients to develop a litigation strategy for child custody and visitation to allow parents to protect their own rights while serving their children's best interests. Minimizing the emotional impact of the divorce on the children is a top priority for me.
- Child and spousal support: Many factors, such as both parties' incomes and financial needs, are considered in child support and alimony determinations, and I will help you understand what to expect.
- Stepparent adoptions: If you are a stepparent who wants to adopt your stepchild, I will guide you through the legal process and complete all of the necessary paperwork to accomplish the adoption.
- Prenuptial agreements: Also known as "antenuptial agreements" in Maryland, these agreements allow parties to specify in advance how assets will be divided in the event the marriage does not work out. Especially for individuals bringing significant assets into a marriage or remarrying, these agreements offer significant benefits that should be considered.
- Name changes: Whether you recently divorced and would like to take back your maiden name or you want to change your name for personal or religious reasons, I will help you complete all of the necessary paperwork to obtain the court order to change your name legally.
Whatever your family law concern, count on me to deliver results that understand and meet your needs. Take confidence in knowing that I will handle your entire case myself, from start to finish.
