Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

Re: custody of my son

If there is no existing court order for custody, you would need to file a Complaint for Custody in the Circuit Court of the County in which either you, the other parent, or the child reside. If there is an existing order, then you would need to file a Motion to Modify Custody. The current custodial parent may file a counter-claim for child support if one isn't already in effect.

Custody determinations are based on numerous factors including the character and fitness of the parents, where the child is currently residing, how the child is doing in the current arrangement, etc. Feel free to contact me to discuss the matter further.
