The Rockville Family Lawyer Who "Gets It"

The state of Maryland has specific laws related to family matters that can greatly impact your case. Our Family Law Services ensure that you are informed of these critical aspects, such as:

• The different grounds for divorce in Maryland, including mutual consent and fault-based divorce
• The state's child support guidelines, which take into account each parent's income, as well as the child's needs and expenses
• The importance of establishing paternity, especially when it comes to child support and custody rights

In the landmark case of Conover v. Conover (2016), the Maryland Court of Appeals ruled that de facto parents have legal standing to seek custody and visitation of a child. This groundbreaking decision has major implications for non-biological parents moving forward, including same-sex partners and stepparents. We responded to this knowledge by adapting our team's approach accordingly. Our Family Lawyer stays abreast of critical legal developments to provide the most effective representation when sudden law changes occur.

Our legal team believes every client deserves a legal team that speaks their language and can relate to their unique circumstances.

The firm empowers clients to make informed decisions about their family's future by providing helpful advice. This approach helps to build trust and confidence between clients and their legal teams.

In addition to traditional legal representation, The Law Offices of Sandra Guzman-Salvado offers Family Law Mediation as an alternative way to resolve disputes. Mediation is a collaborative process where a neutral third party facilitates communication and negotiation between the parties to help them reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Mediation can be an effective way to resolve disputes in a more amicable, less confrontational manner. The mediator does not make decisions for the parties but instead helps them to communicate more effectively and explore creative solutions that meet their needs and interests. Mediation can be particularly beneficial for families who want to maintain positive relationships with each other, especially in cases involving child custody and visitation. By resolving disputes through mediation, parties can often avoid the emotional and financial toll of a lengthy court battle.
