IMPORTANT: Family First Legal, LLC is a Maryland-licensed law firm. The “Forms & Instructions Only” attorney guides provide general legal forms and instructional materials for your independent use. This service does NOT constitute legal representation, does NOT create an attorney-client relationship, and is NOT a substitute for individualized legal advice.

Because no attorney reviews, drafts, or tailors your documents under this service, no attorney-client privilege attaches to your use of these materials, and Family First Legal does not perform a conflict-of-interest check in connection with this service. The forms and instructions provided are general in nature and based on standard Maryland court forms; they are not customized to your specific facts or legal strategy.

You are solely responsible for determining whether these forms and instructions are appropriate for your situation, for completing them accurately, and for filing them correctly with the court. Family First Legal is not responsible for errors, omissions, missed deadlines, or outcomes resulting from your use of these materials.

We strongly encourage anyone using these attorney guides to consult with us at Family First Legal before filing, particularly if your matter is contested, complex, or involves domestic violence, emergency custody, or financial concealment. If you would prefer attorney-prepared documents with the protections of a limited-scope attorney-client relationship, please ask about our "File It Yourself" attorney-prepared service.
