Fathers Rights

Advocating for Fathers’ Rights in Maryland

Fathers play a vital role in their children’s lives, and their rights deserve protection. At Lebovitz Law, we advocate for fathers in Towson and across Maryland, helping them secure custody, visitation, and decision-making authority in family law matters.

Understanding Fathers’ Rights

Fathers have equal rights under Maryland law, including access to custody and visitation. Establishing paternity is often the first step in protecting these rights.
