Here are some frequently asked questions pertaining to criminal law defense and my firm:

• If I am facing a sex crime charge or have been convicted of a sex crime charge, is there a way to get off the sex offender registry? - Yes. Although it is difficult, there are ways to get off the registry or prevent you from being placed on the registry in the first place. It involves a large amount of paperwork, appeals, and an extensive knowledge of the legal and court systems. That is why it is best to have an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side.
• What happens if I unknowingly violate my probation agreement? - You will be charged with violating your probation and will be called into court again. However, if we can prove that your violation was unintentional, then there is a high chance I can work to get the penalties lessened or dropped completely.
• Is there a difference between theft and robbery? - Theft is more of an overarching term for many different offenses in the state of Maryland. Robbery is the most severe form of theft because it involves physical harm or the threat of physical harm.
• Do you offer free legal advice? - Yes! I offer a free 30-minute initial consultation for all of my clients. During this consultation, we can discuss your specific case, the expected outcomes of the case, costs, and any other concerns you might have.
