I have practiced law since December 1995, in most areas of civil litigation. I am a proud graduate of Towson University and University of Baltimore School of Law. I live in Howard County and my office is in Baltimore County, but I represent clients in every jurisdiction in Maryland. I received an award for providing 20 years of pro bono services to indigent clients. I have clients I have known for almost 20 years, who still come back to me and refer their friends and family to me. Contact me if you have a legal issue. There is no fee for the initial consultation.
