About Us

At Turnbull, Nicholson & Sanders, P.A. (TNS Family Law), we recognize that family law matters are deeply personal and often life-changing. Whether you are navigating a high-conflict divorce, a complex custody dispute, or post-judgment modifications, you deserve more than just legal advice—you deserve a legal team that champions your goals with precision and empathy.

Our firm is dedicated exclusively to family law. This singular focus allows us to provide strategic representation rooted in a sophisticated understanding of Maryland family law and the challenges modern families face.

A Depth of Experience You Can Rely On

TNS Family Law is known for the depth of experience our attorneys bring to every matter. We represent individuals across a wide range of family law issues, from straightforward cases to high-conflict and high-asset matters that require careful planning and discretion. Our attorneys do not simply practice family law; they shape it.

  • Educators: Our team regularly leads continuing legal education (CLE) seminars and contributes to the evolution of family law practice in Maryland.
  • Strategic Problem Solvers: We handle everything from straightforward domestic matters to high-asset cases requiring intricate financial analysis and discretion.
  • Respected Advocates: Our ongoing engagement with professional organizations ensures our clients benefit from the most current legal standards and innovative dispute-resolution techniques.

A Strategic and Balanced Approach

We believe that a “one-size-fits-all” approach has no place in family law. We take a balanced approach that considers both litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR), allowing us to tailor our strategy to your specific circumstances. When negotiation or settlement is possible, we pursue it thoughtfully. When court involvement is necessary, we are prepared to advocate decisively and effectively.

This flexibility allows us to serve a broad range of clients, including business owners, professionals, public servants, executives, professional athletes, and individuals whose cases require heightened privacy and discretion.

A Commitment to Respect, Inclusion, and Discretion

We provide affirming representation for all individuals and family structures. Our firm is proud to serve a diverse client base, including people of color, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ clients. We understand the unique dynamics that may arise in these cases and approach every matter with cultural awareness and equity.

Furthermore, we are the firm of choice for executives, public servants, and high-profile professionals whose lives require an elevated level of confidentiality. Protecting your privacy is integrated into every step of our process.

We Are Focused on You and What Comes Next

At TNS Family Law, we believe strong family law representation starts with listening. We take the time to understand your concerns, explain your options clearly, and develop a strategy aligned with your goals. You can expect direct, timely communication, thoughtful guidance, and advocacy that reflects both experience and integrity.
