Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland
Divorce agreement contract
My husband is leaving me after 4 months of marriage. I told him I wouldn't contest the divorce if he paid monies owed to me and he paid all divorce fees. I got him to agree to this and put it in writting and we got it signed by a notary. Now his lawyer is telling him not to do this, will my document stand up in court?

Re: Divorce agreement contract
If you and your husband signed an agreement he is bound by it, despite what his lawyer says. It should stand up in court.
