Carl R Schlaich

I hired Carl and his Law Firm to defend me against some allegations that were totally unfounded. During the process he asked all the right questions and make sure he had the facts of the case. It was difficult for me to Fathom what was happening but he reassured me of the steps involved and gave me g...ood advice throughout the process. Some of the advice was hard to take at times but it turned out that his experience was what was driving his decisions. The end result was that he was able to defend me and both charges were returned with a not guilty verdict. I wasn't worried that the process wouldn't return a not guilty verdict with him by my side. The way he asked questions of the Accuser helped to determine that they were lying. He would ask the same questions in different ways throughout the process and every answer was different to the same question. It was truly magical to watch him work. I know for a fact I will never need him again but if I had to suggest to somebody to find a defense attorney it would be Carl Schlaich.

I have been an attorney for almost two decades. And with every passing year I come to dislike members of my profession less and less (I am saying that only half jokingly). This field, especially criminal law, has become a haven for hustlers. They will say whatever you need to hear to get your money. ...Carl Schlaich would rather lose business than to steer unwitting people in the wrong direction. He is one of the "Realest" attorneys (with a practice) I have come in contact with. Although he knew we were not going to work together, Mr. Schlaich spoke to me for an hour and a half. He broke down the Harford County judicial system in a way never expressed to me before. He is a straight shooter - a trait which is extremely important in the attorney/client relationship. I would 100% recommend Mr. Schlaich. His 30 plus years as an attorney is icing on an already great cake.

We hired Mr. Schlaich to represent our adult son based on reviews I read regarding his experience and qualifications. He was extremely knowledgeable regarding the Harford County Court process and took the time to explain all the details to our son and to us. I was very impressed with the superior com...munication process and his professionalism. Carl routinely updated us with phone calls and letters to keep us informed. He was always prepared, motivated, and caring and we truly appreciated it. Our son was facing 2 felony charges and we believe the outcome would not have been as positive if Carl Schlaich had not been his attorney. We highly recommend him and his law firm. Thank you!

There was an instantaneous, humanitarian feeling working with Carl ! In addition he is an extremely personable attorney. He made it very evident that he was a fighter for his client, and made it clear he would go to any limit (legally) to win a case for his client ! Carl will search out al...l options to guarantee your case is a success! The case I had was extremely difficult case and very convoluted. A summary of my case was as follows: I sold an iPhone and allowed and individual to use a line on my sprint account with no contract, basically "pay as you go" and subsequently terminated his service for non-payment in a timely fashion. Because this person disrespected me and refused to honor my privacy by staying away from my residence and not contacted me, in addition to hacking my Sprint account, I subsequently filed a peace order against this individual. He then filed a small claims court suit for $5000 claiming that I inconvenienced his life. The District Court of Maryland Small Claims Division suggested that each person should contact one another and try to work out issues to resolve this matter and prevent going to court, which I attempted. When I contacted the person in question trying to resolve this matter, he decided to go to the commissioners office and file criminal charges claiming phone abuse. In addition, the States Attorney filed a second criminal charge stating that I was harassing him over the phone. I initially suggested to Carl that I wanted to go to the commissioners office and file criminal charges for unauthorized Internet access of my Sprint account. Carl subsequently researched Maryland state laws and notified me that there were indeed a criminal charges for unlawful and unauthorized Internet access. Because Carl has been a defense attorney for such a long time and has adjudicated many difficult cases in his career, in various jurisdictions he was able to show me why filing criminal charges for unauthorize Internet access for my cases in Harford County, MD would be more favorable as opposed to Baltimore County because filing the criminal charges in Harford County would put more pressure on the States Attorney in this county to file criminal charges against my adversary and or drop the cases against me entirely, which they eventually did. After I filed criminal charges against my adversary for unauthorized and unlawful internet access, the Sherriffs office did not have suffucient time to serve him with the criminal charge documents for authorized and unlawful Internet access prior to the initial court hearing. Carl soon discovered at the court hearing that the papers were not served to him and instinctively went to the sheriffs office and suggested they serve him outside the court room. Carl subsequently convinced the states attorney to re-schedule the hearing and combine the cases into one trial, and inevitably dismiss the cases against me. Subsequent to this, the small claims suit resulted in the plaintiff not appearing in court and this case was dismissed with predjudice. Carl being the astute lawyer that he is, drastically changed the dynamics of the criminal charges that were pending against me, and all charges were subsequently dismissed at the next hearing.
