White Papers

	Family Law & Same-sex Marriage in Maryland Same-sex marriage is not yet recognized in Maryland. That means same-sex partners must take independent steps to protect themselves. This White Paper examines the legal issues surrounding gay marriage in Maryland and appropriate legal steps like Domestic Partnership Agreements.
	New Maryland Child Support Guidelines For the first time since 1990, the Maryland legislature has updated the Maryland child support guidelines. The new guidelines have implications for calculating child support in Maryland especially for the highest and lowest income residents. As child support attorneys in Maryland, we created this document to explain some of the impact of the new developments.
	No Fault Divorce in Maryland A new law was recently passed in the Maryland General Assembly making a change in the grounds for divorce. This is a major change in the law. It shortens the time a spouse, who does not have an agreement to separate or a fault ground for divorce, has to wait for a divorce to one year down from two years.
