  • What should I do when I get into an accident?

    The first thing you should do is call the police. If it is safe and you can do so, take photos of the scene and the vehicles involved. Also, photograph any injuries, such as bruising, scarring, and swelling (needs body part comparison).

  • Do I talk to the insurance company after an accident?

    You can report an accident to your insurance company, but you should not give a recorded statement or talk about the nature and extent of your injuries.

  • The other driver’s insurance company called me. Should I talk to them?

    You should always let your attorney speak with them first.

  • The parent of my child is withholding my child from me. What should I do?

    Consult an attorney as soon as you can.

  • Can I get custody of a child that is not mine but I have been taking care of?

    Yes, third-party custody lets non-biological parents gain custody of children. Consult an attorney to see if your situation meets the requirements.

  • Is it true that in a divorce my spouse is going to get 50% of my assets?

    This depends on various factors. Maryland is a court of equity.

  • The police want to question me about a crime, but I know I didn’t do anything wrong, so shouldn’t it be okay for me to talk to them?

    Do not allow the police to question you without an attorney present. Immediately invoke your right to an attorney.

  • If I am pulled over by the police and they want to search my car, should I give them consent?

    If the police do not have the necessary probable cause to search your vehicle, you should not allow them to do so.

  • I received a DUI. Is that something that I can handle on my own?

    You should not handle a DUI case on your own because the consequences for DUIs and other related offenses come with severe penalties, such as jail time and the loss of your license.
