If a parent has relocated, the child’s school situation has changed, the parenting schedule is no longer working, or both parents agree a change is needed, this uncontested package prepares a full consent modification of the existing custody order. Maryland courts require both a material change in circumstances and that the modification serves the child’s best interest. An optional 30-minute phone consultation with a Family First Legal attorney is available with this package.
What's Included:
Optional 30-minute phone consultation with a Family First Legal attorney is available with every package. The consultation is recommended if you are unsure what to file, but is not required. If you elect the consultation, document drafting begins after the consultation is completed. If you waive the consultation, drafting begins upon receipt of your completed intake questionnaire.
