Maryland Family Law Training
Join experts from Volunteer Legal Advocates and learn how to help domestic violence survivors and their children find long-term safety and stability through a permanent custody and/or divorce order.
Key topics include the dynamics of domestic violence, trauma-informed legal advocacy, and the legal framework for child custody and divorce in Maryland family courts.
Attendees will also learn about a unique rule that allows pro bono attorneys to practice in Maryland—without being barred in the state—offering a powerful opportunity to make a meaningful impact for clients in crisis.
