Almost everyone who is considering divorce feels a great deal of emotional turmoil. They are angry or hurt, and they want justice in court. Attorneys know, however, that most cases settle before they actually go to trial.

Yes, the case may settle before trial, but with all the facts in hand and a willingness to take the case as far as it needs to go, we believe our clients are in the best position to achieve a favorable outcome.

Marital Property Division in Maryland
Many people misunderstand how marital property is divided in Maryland. Regardless of who holds the title to a car or a home, if it was bought during the marriage or grew in value, it is considered to be marital property and its value will be divided between both partners, in most cases.
Ms. White's strong negotiating skills and understanding of the proper valuation of a wide range of assets are two qualities that clients look for and appreciate when working with our firm.
Spousal Support ("Alimony") in Maryland
Spousal maintenance is not always granted in Maryland. It can be difficult to get a judgment for support and, if it is granted, it may be only for a limited time. Whether the court decides to order alimony it will rest largely upon the strength of the case your attorney makes.
