 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am writing to highly recommend this firm. It has been a year since we finished working together, and I would not hesitate to hire them again.

Attorney Baumohl thoroughly prepared me and my case for the "gray divorce" process. While no one anticipates a divorce at this stage of life, his guidance was invaluable. Throughout the year leading up to our court date, I never had to wonder about the status of my case or my next steps.

I relied on him for guidance through every difficulty, big or small. He was consistently gracious, kind, and patient. I counted on his calm wisdom to keep me focused on rational facts rather than reacting emotionally.

If you want someone in your corner who is ready to advocate for you, I strongly suggest calling Harry Baumohl. I am grateful beyond words that I did.

Having this firm represent me significantly reduced the stress and uncertainty of the divorce process.

The outcome gave me clarity, peace of mind, and a strong foundation to move forward with the next chapter of my life.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Harry was great! As in any divorce matter you don’t get everything you want. Harry’s guidance allowed us to avoid court and be even more costly. Harry took the emotions out of it to help me think rationally especially when fighting over small items was the cost worth the effort. I highly recommend Harry if you are in a high conflict divorce.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best decision I’ve ever made — Mike Hamburg is in a class of his own.

After years of disappointment with attorneys who didn’t deliver, I finally found someone who didn’t just take on my case—he owned it. Mike Hamburg is the kind of attorney every parent wishes they had on their side.

From the very beginning, he went above and beyond. He came to my home, sat with me, listened, and truly understood the pain and unfairness I had been dealing with. He saw how badly I was being treated, and more importantly, how it was affecting my son, Romeo. And from that moment on, he made it his mission to fight for what was right.

I’ve had lawyers in the past tell me flat-out that getting custody was impossible. Mike looked me in the eye and said, “You deserve custody of your son—and I’m going to help you get it.” And he kept his word.

Mike’s passion, professionalism, and personal investment in my case made all the difference. He fought like it was his own family on the line—and because of that, I got the best possible outcome. He didn’t just win a case—he helped change the future for me and my son.

If you’re looking for someone who will fight with heart, integrity, and relentless commitment, hire Mike Hamburg. Don’t waste time or money anywhere else. I can’t recommend him enough.

Thank you, Mike and Jodie—for everything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are divorce and family law cases heard in Baltimore County?

Divorce, custody and other family law matters in Baltimore County are generally heard in the Circuit Court for Baltimore County in Towson. Baumohl Hamburg’s attorneys have decades of experience handling family law matters in Baltimore County and understand the preparation required for contested and financially complex cases.

When should I contact a divorce lawyer?

You do not need to wait until you are ready to file for divorce. Speaking with an attorney early can help you understand your rights, financial position and available options before making decisions that could affect your case.

What should I bring to my first meeting with a divorce lawyer?

If financial issues are likely to be important, documents concerning income, real estate, retirement accounts, investments, businesses and other significant assets can help your attorney understand the situation. You do not need to have every document collected before scheduling a consultation. The initial meeting can also help identify what additional information may be needed.

What makes a divorce a high-asset or high-net-worth divorce?

There is no single asset or income threshold that defines a high-asset divorce. These cases typically involve substantial or complex financial interests such as businesses, professional practices, real estate, investments, retirement assets, trusts, executive compensation or inherited wealth.

Can a high-asset divorce be handled privately?

Many divorce issues can be addressed through private negotiation or mediation, which may offer greater privacy than litigating disputed issues in court. The appropriate approach depends on the circumstances of the case and whether both parties are willing and able to reach agreements outside of litigation.

How are business interests handled in a Maryland divorce?

Business interests may need to be identified, classified and valued as part of the marital estate. Depending on the circumstances, the process can involve reviewing ownership records, financial statements, income and other business information. Baumohl Hamburg can work with business valuation and financial professionals when specialized analysis is needed.

When might financial forensics be needed in a divorce?

Financial forensic professionals may be useful when assets or income are difficult to identify, trace or value. They can assist with issues involving business finances, complex compensation, asset tracing, cash flow and other financial questions that may affect property division or support.

Can a high-net-worth divorce be resolved without going to trial?

Yes, complex divorce cases can often be resolved through negotiation, mediation or other forms of alternative dispute resolution. When an acceptable agreement cannot be reached, Baumohl Hamburg is prepared to protect the client’s interests through litigation.

Does Baumohl Hamburg handle custody and support cases that do not involve a high-net-worth divorce?

Yes. Although Baumohl Hamburg has significant experience with complex and high-asset divorce, our attorneys represent Baltimore County clients across a broad range of family law matters, including child custody, child support, alimony, property division, modifications and enforcement.
