Unfaithfulness or a child custody battle is a tough thing to deal with. Having a solid strategy is key to a successful ending. If you've already started down the legal path, then you’ve already got a taste of how our courts work. It's almost as if "the system" is designed to be as difficult and take as long as possible. That's because in many ways it is. Who makes our laws? Lawyers. Who gets paid when you go into court? Lawyers. So, the process can be designed to take as long as possible, because that also makes it costly as possible. People contact us all the time and mention they've been dealing with the courts for last 18+ months and feel as if they've gotten nowhere other than being mentally exhausted and watching all their money disappear. Attorney fees to fight in court can be overwhelming for you and your family. Our fees can be less than a ¼ of such. If you've done the research, you already know Maryland is a fault state. However, is the legal documentation of cheating just about the law and court? Absolutely not. Information is a powerful tool, and a tool that should be used to negotiate. As stated above many times legal counsel wants your case to go to court for the big fight, as the fee to do so dramatically increases. But what if you legally obtained damaging information about your spouse, or child's parent they would not want in the open? Would they not be more susceptible to settling? In most cases that can be answered with a strong "yes". Provided it’s obtained correctly and does not give opposing counsel a way to have it deemed inadmissible or sealed. During break-ups each party is prone to tell friends and family something along the lines of: "he or she is crazy, and I just had to get away". But what if you had legally documented information that contradicts that statement from a licensed Private Investigator able to testify on your behalf? Would that person want to be known as a liar? What if the person they were messing around with was married? Perhaps a work colleague? Getting caught up in a scandal like this can follow them for years. And when children are involved, they can generally become privy to the information as well. 90% of our cases never see the inside of a courtroom because they settle beforehand. We are "Maryland Licensed", and available to work cases all over the state. Would you like to learn more about a different strategy? We always have a free, and friendly consultation.
