Understanding Maryland's family law statutes helps you protect your rights and plan your case. Here's what you need to know.
Adultery, Desertion (12+ months), Conviction of a felony or misdemeanor with 3+ years sentence, Cruelty, Insanity (3+ years)
Maryland eliminated the 12-month separation requirement in 2023, replacing it with mutual consent divorce (no waiting period) and a 6-month separation option.
Maryland is an equitable distribution state. The court divides marital property fairly based on monetary and non-monetary contributions, the circumstances leading to divorce, and each spouse's economic situation. Maryland courts can only divide marital property — they cannot transfer title of separately owned property.
Maryland's approach is unique: the court can grant a monetary award to achieve equity but generally cannot directly transfer one spouse's separately titled property to the other.
Best interests of the child
No
Maryland does not have a statutory presumption for joint custody, but courts regularly award joint legal custody when parents can cooperate.
Maryland uses the income shares model based on both parents' combined adjusted actual income. Guidelines apply to combined income up to $30,000/month.
Support may continue to 19 if the child is still in high school. Courts may also order support for college expenses.
Indefinite alimony is available when the court finds that the spouse cannot become self-supporting due to age, illness, disability, or the standard of living would be unconscionably disparate.
