Family Law Attorney Consulting Services

Many divorce and family law problems can be resolved fairly easily. Every so often however, a family law attorney faces an unusual situation. It may be a problem client. It may be a unique mental health problem that requires specialized services in addition to legal representation. It may be the need to avoid family litigation, or resolve litigation already underway in a timely and effective manner.

Family law advocates in Maryland and the Washington DC area now have a source for legal consulting advice regarding these difficult, complex, or one-of-kind matters.

I am Jo Benson Fogel, a highly experienced family law attorney. For over 30 years, I have represented individuals facing complex divorce and family law problems. I also advise other lawyers and mental health and social service professionals in litigation and ethical matters.

Call 301-468-2288 or send me an e-mail to arrange for a consultation.

An Experienced Counselor

In my practice, I have handled nearly every type of family law problem - ranging from child custody disputes, parental relocation, divorces involving a business, divorce litigation, and other highly problematic and contested matters.

I have many significant legal accomplishments, including numerous published cases:

• Hill v. Hill, 79 Md. App. 708, 558 A.2d 1231 (1989)
• Bell v. Forti, 85 Md. App. 345, 584 A.2d 77 (1991)
• Lebac v. Lebac, 109 Md.App. 396, 675 A.2d 131 (1996)
• Giffin v. Crane, 351 Md. 133, 716 A.2d (1998)
• Langston v. Langston, 366 Md. 490, 784 A.2d 1086 (2001)
• Trembow v. Schonfeld 393 Md. 327, 901 A.2d 825 (2006)

In addition to achieving many negotiated family law settlements and resolving litigation successfully, I have extensive experience in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods and strategies.

An Objective Assessment

Sometimes a lawyer needs a sounding board - someone with whom the lawyer can explore ideas, litigation strategies, and concerns. I am available to provide that second opinion, with no vested interest in the outcome of the matter. You can draw upon my extensive experience to obtain an objective assessment of your case - as well as practical advice and a roadmap for resolving the problem you face.
