Glen Burnie Fathers' Rights Lawyer

Protecting Fathers' Rights in Glen Burnie

Fathers are often forced to take legal action to preserve their parental rights during and after a divorce. In the past, the judge would award full child custody to the mother in a majority of cases, leaving the father on the sidelines of his children's lives. More recently, as the importance of paternal contact has become more broadly recognized, courts will frequently work to foster this relationship through shared custody and increased child visitation rights. Even with this shift, there is no guarantee that you will walk away from the divorce satisfied with the outcome. If you face opposition from your former wife, you need to hire an aggressive Glen Burnie divorce lawyer who will help you fight for a custody agreement that will not deprive you of a full and meaningful relationship with your children.

Our firm will assist you at any point during your divorce to see that you can still play a major role in raising the children in the years after your divorce. It is highly desirable to resolve conflicts between you and your ex-wife without going to court, and we have a trained mediator on staff to assist in negotiations. If it is necessary to resort to litigation against an uncooperative mother, our extensive experience in the field of family law will help in building your case. We also represent fathers in paternity actions and in child custody modifications to seek greater access to the children.
