Charles County MD Divorce Attorney

Divorce Attorney in Charles County MD

Many people are faced with whether or not to get divorced. Regardless of the reason for wanting a divorce, it is vital to have a divorce attorney in Charles County MD, by your side. Having an attorney ensures everything is taken care of, including establishing child support, visitation, and property division.

Below is a list of the many components of a divorce the attorneys at the Law Office of Robert Castro can help you with:

Legal Separation

Separation, where spouses live apart to end their marriage, is a legal ground for divorce.

Child Support

Child support may be established to help ensure the child’s financial needs are met, especially when the parents do not live together.

Child Custody

Various child custody agreements include legal, physical, and shared custody. A Charles County MD divorce attorney can help you determine which child custody agreement is best for your family’s situation.

Property Division

In some divorces, the spouses can agree on the division of marital property; however, there are some cases where the spouses cannot agree, and the Maryland courts must intervene.

Relocation

If one parent wants to relocate, they must provide a 90 days notice, especially when planning to move out of state. Your attorney can help file the necessary paperwork for relocation.

Modification

If the current child custody agreement is not working, one parent can seek a modification but must prove to the judge the change is necessary.

Mediation

If deemed necessary by the courts, couples may be ordered to mediation for any child custody disputes and other divorce-related disagreements.

Visitation

A reasonable visitation schedule allows both parents to maintain an active role in the child’s life. Visitation schedules vary based on physical custody of the child.

Spousal Support

Under Maryland law, both spouses are responsible for each other’s financial stability. Financial support does not end when the couple separates, and the courts will determine which spouse has a right to spousal support.
