Fathers’ Rights
Fight for Your Rights as a Father: Experienced Fathers’ Rights Lawyers in Rockville, Maryland
Fathers are just as vital to their children’s well-being as mothers. Yet, many fathers face unfair treatment in custody battles and aren’t given equitable responsibilities or access. By working with a Maryland fathers’ rights attorney, you can take legal steps to protect your role as the father of your children. At the Law Offices of Ellen L. Lee, we believe in fighting for fathers’ rights and ensuring they have a meaningful part in their children’s lives.
If you’re a father in Maryland, your rights include:
- Custody: If you’re not granted custody of your children, you can request a custody modification. Maryland law assumes that both parents are equally fit to be custodial parents, so joint custody is usually granted. However, in cases of unfitness or domestic violence, sole custody may be given to the other parent.
- Visitation Rights: You have the right to seek reasonable visitation time with your children. If the mother is denying you equal access, you can ask the court to grant you more time.
- Important Decisions: Both parents have the right to participate in decisions regarding their children’s upbringing, such as education, healthcare, and religion. However, if one parent is deemed unfit, this right can be taken away.
At the Law Offices of Ellen L. Lee, we are dedicated to protecting fathers’ rights. Our experienced fathers’ rights attorneys in Rockville are here to help you seek custody, visitation rights, and more.
