Divorce in Maryland: Protecting Your Rights, Your Family, and Your Future
Divorce is more than just the end of a marriage—it is the beginning of a new chapter in your life. The way your divorce is handled will affect your financial stability, your living arrangements, your parenting rights, and your emotional well-being. It is not just a legal process; it is a deeply personal and often painful transition.
Every divorce is unique. Some couples can reach an agreement quickly and amicably, while others face years of litigation and contentious battles over assets, children, and financial support. Whether your divorce is uncontested or fiercely contested, we are here to ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive a fair outcome.
Divorce is not just about the past—it’s about securing your future. We take the time to understand your unique circumstances, financial concerns, and personal goals, working to create an outcome that allows you to move forward with confidence and stability.
Children: Protecting Their Best Interests While Defending Your Parental Rights
When children are involved, it is not just about the here and now or negotiating financial agreements—it’s about their future, their stability, and their well-being. The decisions made in a custody battle or child support case will impact them for years to come, which is why it is crucial to have an experienced attorney advocating for your parental rights and ensuring that their best interests are protected.
1. Child Custody and Parenting Time
Maryland courts focus on what is in the best interests of the child, but parents often disagree on what that looks like. Custody cases can be intense and emotionally draining, especially when one parent attempts to limit the other’s involvement in the child’s life.
We fight to ensure fair custody arrangements that reflect the child’s needs and the rights of both parents. Whether you are seeking joint custody, sole custody, or a fair parenting time agreement, we will stand by you and work toward a resolution that protects your role as a parent.
2. Child Support
Both parents have a legal obligation to support their children, but child support calculations can be complex. Maryland courts consider income, custody arrangements, medical expenses, and educational needs when determining support payments.
If you are seeking child support, defending against an unfair request, or dealing with an enforcement issue, we are here to help ensure that the final arrangement is just and provides for your child’s needs.
Family Law Agreements: Planning for the Future and Protecting Your Rights
Not all family law cases involve conflict. Many involve planning, protection, and proactive legal agreements designed to prevent disputes and provide clarity in relationships.
At Edwards Law Group, we help clients draft and negotiate agreements that provide peace of mind and financial security, including:
- Prenuptial Agreements: Protecting assets and financial rights before marriage.
- Postnuptial Agreements: Clarifying financial responsibilities within marriage.
- Separation Agreements: Establishing legal rights and responsibilities when a couple chooses to separate.
- Marital Settlement Agreements: Outlining the terms of a divorce in a legally binding contract.
These agreements provide structure, financial protection, and legal clarity, helping couples avoid lengthy legal battles in the future.
LGBTQ+ Family Law: Protecting All Families
Maryland law recognizes the rights of same-sex couples and LGBTQ+ individuals, but legal challenges still arise in divorce, custody, and family law agreements.
At Edwards Law Group, we represent LGBTQ+ individuals in all aspects of family law, including:
- Divorce
- Child Custody and Parental Rights

- Domestic Partnership Agreements
We are committed to ensuring that all families, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, receive equal treatment under the law.
