I have been practicing family law for over 40 years, and have helped over 3,000 people through this often difficult process.  I handle all aspects of separation and divorce, including mediation, negotiations and litigation of simple and complex cases.  I work on child custody, visitation and child support cases, divorces involving significant marital assets and division of property and pensions, alimony, and even pet visitation.  My approach is to work hard to solve your problems, but not necessarily to "punish" the other side.  I want you to finish the process knowing that the outcome was "fair" and you dealt with things "honorably".. My hourly rates are at the high end for Frederick County, because of my experience and reputation.  However, I also rely on less expensive associate attorneys (with "only"  5 - 7 years of experience) to "build" your case while I serve as the "architect" doing the planning and strategic work that my experience and knowledge bring to the table.    The bottom line is that my final bill is ususally much lower than the other attorney's is,   even though they may  charge less per hour than I do.

I have been practicing law for 35+ years.  I started because I wanted to help people and that motivation continues.  We prize ourselves on providing excellent legal representation throughout Maryland.

As an attorney who has focused his career in the practice of family law, Jared Pinkus has negotiated settlement agreements and engaged in litigation pertaining to complex financial disputes, child custody and out of state removal matters, jurisdictional disputes (including disputes related to the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act) and paternity actions.. Jared takes a measured yet calculated approach when representing clients who are going through difficult times in their personal lives.  In Jared’s experience, a well-negotiated settlement agreement frequently offers his clients the best value and security for both the client and their family.  When negotiating settlement agreements, Jared works with his clients to formulate and implement a strategy always keeping the client’s final objectives at the forefront.. Unfortunately, settlement is not always an option.  Keeping that in mind, throughout the negotiation process Jared utilizes discovery tools, motion practice and the rules of procedure and evidence to position his client’s case for litigation.  At trial, Jared takes an aggressive yet reasonable approach arguing the particular facts of each case to the applicable law.. Jared has tried and received favorable results in actions pertaining to the following:. ·         Allocation of complex marital and non-marital estates, including the valuation and allocation of privately held businesses.. ·         Forensic accounting and tracing of income and other funds over a significant period of time.. ·         Determination of appropriate child and spousal support (maintenance or alimony).. ·         International jurisdictional dispute between Illinois and India.. ·         Initial child custody disputes and modifications to child custody and visitation schedules.. ·         Child custody and visitation issues involving drug and alcohol abuse.. ·         Seeking and defending against out-of-state removal of a minor child..
