Outstanding Representation!
Maryland's best Attorney Tom Maronick was hired to represent my son who was facing 10 to 15 years for 4 felony and 4 misdemeanor charges. Tom from the very beginning did an outstanding job. He took the time to Consult with my son on several Occasions while he was in jail which help him and our family get thru this very difficult time in our lives. Two weeks before Trial Tom was able get a very Favorable Plea deal which removed 4 felony charges and 2 Misdemeanor's. Our family would like to Thank Tom Maronick for the superb Representation he provided for our Son! Sincerely Jeff H.

DUI Attorney
I retained Maronick Law for a first-time DUI case in Ocean City Maryland. The team at Maronick told me exactly what to do, exactly what to expect, provided various payment options, and made it very clear my options and potential outcomes. My results were very typical for a first time DUI in the state of MD and I was very relieved when it was over. *** NOTE *** If this is your first time, be prepared that you really don't communicate with your lawyer a lot - and you'll do some of your own leg work. You'll get emails and instructions from other ppl at the firm telling you what to do - but you'll only speak directly with your lawyer 2 or 3 total times through the process.

DUI cases
Was very professional in what they did; however, I had to contact them multiple times with questions that were unanswered. He responded quickly to my inquiries an has the knowledge to handle harder cases. After trial stayed to make sure everything was sorted out to my liking and made sure everything went as smoothly as possible.

Tough Case Great Lawyer
I was in a desperate situation and on paper my case looked terrible. I stood to loose my job and much more. Tom Maronick and his team worked incredible hard to get an outcome that both saved my job as well as received a sentencing that allowed me to continue working. Tom was courteous and would regularly call to explain matters with regards to the case. I would recommend Maronick Law to anyone who was in a similar situation.

The firm and the entire staff are wonderful team. My experienced with the firm since the beginning of my case till the end was awesome, I never regret of engaging them as my Anthony. For more than a year of my case they never take my case for granted and their representative in court’ in person of Anthony Anson was a young and such a brilliant lawyer. He did an excellent job.

Tom the MAN!
Maronick Law Firm is the way to go, Tom is the man you want standing besides you once your name is called off that dockett. Busy man don’t get me wrong so it’ll be hard to get in touch with him at times, however his associates in office always directed me in the best ways possible when I couldn’t get in touch with Tom himself. Extremely satisfied beyond belief in regards to the conclusion of my trial, as if Tom had a pair of wings under his suit jacket and a halo over his head. If it’s within your budget, and it is over something serious like my case was, Maronick is the guy you need. Blessings Tom, thanks again.

Zach was excellent representation- he was easy to reach and answered my questions thoughtfully. I felt that he took the time to get to know me and understand my situation, and advocated for me fully. He set clear expectations and delivered on his word. Would highly recommend!

Tom was the best representation I could’ve hoped for.
Tom worked hard to identify my needs on the first call. And from there we started a great working relationship where he was available to help whenever needed, or his amazing team. He scheduled a sit down review of my case before trial and we drove two hours and reviewed the discovery and discussed our game plan to make sure I became a better person in general and everything I needed to do to get the best results in my case and that surely did happen! Tom was early for my trial and we accomplished our goals and got the absolute best outcome possible. Stop your search and hire one of the best out there.
