I graduated from Damascus High School in 1966 and attended Frostburg University for three years. I was then accepted at the University of Nebraska College of Law and graduated in December of 1971. Upon graduation, I moved back to Maryland and assumed the duties of a law clerk for the Honorable Perry G. Bowen. I worked with the firm of Sengstack, Sengstack and Lamson and was a part time assistant States Attorney from 1981 to 1984. I then went into a solo practice and in 1989 ran in a contested election for the office of the State's Attorney and won. I was subsequently sworn into that office in January of 1980 and upon the unexpected passing of the District Court Judge in February of 1980 I was appointed by Governor Hughes to the District Court vacancy becoming the youngest judge to ever fill that vacancy. I served in that capacity until the spring of 1991 and retired as the Administrative Judge for the Fourth District.
I resumed private practice after two spine surgeries in 1992.

Great Lawyer
At 45, this was the first time that I needed a lawyer to defend me and I was scared about what the future would be like for me. Mr. Lamson understood this and explained every step to me so that I knew every possible scenario, good or bad. At no time did I have any unrealistic expectations about the...

Absolutely no doubt a great man with a great heart that knows criminal law. He by far exceeded the expectations I had for him -- He is the ultimate advocate.
