Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

I am ill and needing surgery. I would like to give temporary custody or guardianship of my young son to my sister. What steps do I need to take? How can I make sure that it's a temporary situation that can be dissolved when I recover?

You should speak with a Maryland family law attorney immediately. They can prepare the necessary documents. Don't try and find something on the internet to save a penny. Because it's your child's well being.

Best of luck.******The above is for informational purposes and does not create an attorney-client privilege.*******

You need to file a petition for temporary guardianship in the circuit court. Since it's consensual, it should not take too long. Contact me for further information.
