Every person accused of a crime deserves the best defense possible. I strive to provide all of my clients with the best possible legal representation. To do that I stay up to date on the criminal law, maintain contact with my clients, make certain my clients are aware of the positive and negative aspects of their case, and work to be respected in the local legal community. My reputation as a defense attorney is reflected in having been nominated to the Governor to serve as a judge in the both the District and Circuit Courts.

"Carl has selflessly shared his expertise and insights on criminal defense with me since I started practicing criminal defense in 1991. He has been particularly helpful in sharing his thoughts on the cases I have defended in his Harford County home base. I have and will continue to refer those in need of a lawyer to Carl when I have a scheduling conflict or co-defendant conflict."
