Highly Recommend for Criminal Representation!

Mr. Lyons has worked with my family serveral times over the last few years, specifically for criminal felonies and misdemeanors. He has always provided excellent expertise in the area of Maryland criminal law, including comforting our family with his knowledge and advice both inside and outside the c...ourtroom. His reputation is impeccable and I believe you'll find him to be an excellent attorney to address your legal needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
