With decades of experience, we will work to accomplish your goals as it pertains to child custody, child support, protective orders, adoption, and divorce matters.

Auto Accidents

Whether you have had a minor accident, or have been seriously injured due to the negligence of another, injuries sustained from auto accidents can be difficult to overcome. Not only do you experience the pain, discomfort, and inconvenience associated with the accident, but you will face a national insurance company that has their own adjusters and lawyers on staff. Give us a call immediately, the consultation is free and you should have the benefit of counsel prior to discussing your matter with the insurance company.

Workers' Compensation

Have you been injured on the job? You may be entitled to a number of benefits that your employer will not voluntarily divulge to you. Let our team discuss with you so that you can make an informed decision regarding medical care, payment for time off of work, and whether you ultimately have a claim for a permanent injury. We have represented injured workers in front of the Maryland Workers' Compensation Commission on a number of issues, including pay disputes, contested cases, and pay for time off of work.
