In a divorce process, couples must resolve important issues about their lives for post-separation and divorce. Some issues may be obvious to address, like making a custody schedule for your children, or what to do about a jointly titled marital home.
Other issues may be less obvious – How will each spouse and the kids obtain health insurance coverage after divorce? How does Maryland law calculate child support or alimony payments? What is the most effective way to divide retirement assets earned during the marriage?
In many cases, these questions and other issues are not necessarily contentious and may not require a lengthy court process to resolve. Instead, working with your spouse and a divorce attorney mediator could help you come to an amicable resolution and save you thousands in legal fees plus months in court.
