Hire Kush Arora
Over the course of six months, Kush represented me through two serious and completely false felony charges—burglary and theft. The situation was deeply emotional and stressful, stemming from a false accusation made by an ex-boyfriend during a difficult breakup. From the very beginning, Kush was calm,...

Waste of money
Didn't show to meeting before court. Agreed to what prosecution proposed. Lied to judge. Didn't know the facts of the case. Don't waste your money. Tried to overcharge me.

Expungement Assistance
Kush took over my case from another attorney who was becoming a judge and therefore had to relinquish his work with clients because of conflict of interest issues. I was working through getting an expungement done for several cases in several counties from 30 years ago which took time and effort bec...

"I've had the opportunity to see Kush handle criminal cases in private practice and also during his days as a public defender. He's got a vast knowledge of criminal and traffic defense, seemingly always able to outsmart the prosecutors. But he also has a great relationship with them, which always helps get better deals when necessary."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer."

"I endorse Mr. Arora without hesitation. We have worked together and I have seen him in action at court on dozens of occasions. He is smart, knowledgeable, creative, and dedicated to getting his clients the best result he is able to get--whether that means taking the case to trial or being a tough negotiator. He is an excellent trial lawyer."
"Kush Arora is a skilled trial attorney who works hard for his clients. He always goes the extra mile to get his clients the best possible result in their case."

"Kush Arora is an exceptional attorney who is committed to getting the best result for every one of his clients. He has significant experience in all areas of criminal law, and maintains a stellar reputation as a skilled trial attorney among judges and fellow attorneys throughout Maryland.

"Kush is a very personable, hard-working attorney. Clients, judges and other attorneys are drawn to him because he has integrity, is hard working, and gets results for his clients."
"Kush is the go-to guy for criminal matters. He fights hard for his clients and gets great results."
"The first time I spoke with Kush about a criminal defense matter was several years ago when we represented co-defendants. He took the approach that I do with co-defendants' lawyers, which is to find points of common interest in the case and to return each other's phone calls. Not all lawyers take that approach, but they should. Thereafter during Kush's tenure at the public defender's office, his views were always on-the-money when I would brainstorm with him about cases. I appreciate all the more that he would take the time for me to bounce an idea off of him about a prosecutor or judge while he was in court with his own multiple clients. Kush knows his stuff, and has the necessary confidence to engage in trial battle. Now in private practice, Kush continues to have what it takes to serve his clients well."
