About Gerald
Biography
I have been a licensed attorney in Maryland for 34 years. I originally concentrated on Family Law, specifically divorce and child custody. While I do accept a limited number of family law matters, I now concentrate in the area of foreclosure litigation. This includes foreclosure defense and suits against lenders. I practice at the trial and appellate level.
I received my law degree from Howard University in 1982, graduating magna cum laude, and ranked first in my class. In 1969 I received my undergraduate degree from The Pennsylvania State University in accounting. I was admitted to the Maryland Bar in 1982, and the Florida Bar in 2009. I am also admitted to practice before the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, the United States District Court for Florida, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal and Fourth Circuit. I hold the highest national Martindale- Hubble lawyer rating of AV*.
I am a recipient of the American Jurisprudence Awards in Family Law, Federal Jurisprudence, Conflicts, Corporations, and Agency.
When necessary, I think outside of the box. I often collaborate on cases with Sari Kurland, Esquire of the Kurland Law Group in Rockville, MD. Many times Sari and I will team up in approaching a case. The issue is not finding a cookie cutter approach to a case. The issue is what we can do as attorneys to achieve the best result for our clients.

David Selman's experience with the Law Offices of Mr. Gerald Solomon
Mr. Solomon is an excellent Attorney on many fronts. I am not just referring to his knowledge of Jurisprudence, but unlike many attorneys he has a genuineness about him that is evident from the first meeting - he really feels your pain, he is patient and he gets it, and I believe this is what shapes ...
Gerald Solomon's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Solomon is a very knowledgeable and effective advocate for his clients."
"I have known and worked with Mr. Solomon for more than 10 years. I first came to know him as a mentor when he reached out to answer a question I had posed to other lawyers on-line. Mr. Solomon freely gave to me his time and knowledge, answered my questions, and guided me in my career path. We have worked together on several cases since then and I have grown to appreciate his knowledge, guidance, and ability to care and give to all around him even more. If you need help, this is the attorney you want to turn to find that help. If I needed help, he is the attorney I would turn to for help."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jerry is extremely competent, well versed as well as a perfect gentleman. I clearly recommend him without reservation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Very knowledgeable and willing to pursue the case as far is it needs, As an AV rated appellate lawyer for more than 20 years, I find that when an attorney is willing and competent to take matters as far as they can go, then the client tends to fair better in the outcome. Gerry is a real fighter for his client and tends to get better results then his contemporaries. I find him reasonable to work with yet aggressive when he needs to. Highly recommend"
