GOOD LUCK...EMAIL ME IF YOU NEED ME...I AM GOING THROUGH THIS RIGHT NOW
UNCONTESTED MATTER: Examples of the most commonly useduncontested grounds are:Two-Year Separation: Your witness should be someone who knows youwell and has frequent contacts with you. Your witness must testify under oaththat he/she knows:!you and your spouse are married to each other;!you and your spouse have been separated for two years;!there is no reasonable hope of your getting back together;!if there is an order of default, whether or not your spouse is in themilitary.Voluntary Separation: Your witness should be someone who knows youwell and has frequent contacts with you. Your witness must testify under oaththat he/she knows:!you and your spouse;!you are married to each other;!you and your spouse BOTH voluntarily agreed to separate;!you and your spouse have been separated for one year;!there is no reasonable hope of your getting back together;!if there is an order of default, whether or not your spouse is in themilitary.If you and your spouse signed a separation agreement under oath (sworn),which says that you separated “mutually and voluntarily” as of a certain date(at least a year ago), then your witness does not have to know it wasvoluntary. Even if you have this type of separation agreement, you will stillneed a witness to testify to the other requirements.CONTESTED MATTER: IF YOU HAVE ANY CONTESTED MATTERS,YOU SHOULD GET THE ASSISTANCE OF AN ATTORNEY WELL BEFORETHE COURT DATE.

Get a lawyer, don't know how long it will take, mine was uncontested but it was California/New York. took almost 6 months from filing to final decree.

I am not sure, but you could google Maryland law. For some reason
I don't think it takes as long to finalize here as in other states.
