Divorce Lawyers in College Park, Maryland

Personal Attention and Professional Representation for over 25 years.

Divorce and family law matters can carry significant financial and emotional burdens not only for the parties involved, but also children, immediate family members, co-workers and other related individuals. Using a compassionate and personable family law attorney to try to resolve your divorce or family law dispute will help you through a difficult time.

There are two types of divorce in Maryland: The limited and the absolute divorce. A limited divorce legalizes the parties' separation but does not provide for final division of property or permit remarriage. An absolute divorce ends the marriage, permits remarriage and determines all rights, including property claims.

The legal grounds required to grant a limited divorce are diffrent from the grounds required for an absolute divorce. Grounds for a limited divorce are: cruelty of treatment, excessively vicious conduct, desertion, or voluntary separation where there is a mutual agreement between the parties to separate, the parties are living seperate and apart without cohabitation, and there is no reasonable expectation of reconciliation.

Grounds for an absolute divorce are: cruelty of treatment, excessively vicious conduct, desertion, adultery, conviction of certain crimes, insanity, voluntary separation where the parties have lived separate and apart without cohabitation for twelve months and there is no reasonable expectation of reconciliartion, or a two year separartion where the parties have lived separate and apart without cohabitation.

We handle all types of divorce and family law disputes, including: contested and uncontested divorce; child custody, support and visitation; spousal maintenance/alimony; division of marital assets, property and debt; and modifications.  We also handle non-divorce related matters, such as adoption, paternity, prenuptial agreements and annulments.
