Uncontested Divorce in Maryland
When you and your spouse agree, divorce doesn't need a courtroom battle or a five-figure legal bill. SimpleDivorce prepares your state-specific forms, coordinates signatures, and files your case with the court — court filing is included, and we can serve your spouse when needed. In Maryland, most mutual-consent cases finalize in 2 to 4 months with no mandatory separation period; cases relying on the 6-month separation ground take at least 6 months of living apart before filing, plus court processing time.
