About Stuart
Biography
I am an experienced attorney, with many difficult cases under my belt. Currently, I am an Associate Attorney with Jennifer L. Hammond, LLC, where I handle cases in Maryland. I handle Criminal Defense, Family Law, Personal Injury, and so much more.
My Experience: I started practicing Criminal Law as a Rule 16 Student Attorney during my second year of Law School. While there, I handled roughly one hundred cases, from simple bail reviews to a complex trial (which resulted in a Not Guilty for my client). Once I finished Law School, I began practicing private criminal defense, and I have done so ever since. Outside of Criminal Law, I also have experience in Family Law, Domestic Violence Law, and Personal Injury Law.
My Last Experience: I was the Staff Attorney for Mid-Shore Council on Family Violence. I handled various types of law (Foreclosure Defense, Protective Order Hearings, Consumer Protection, MVA Issues, and much more).

Results Driven!
Mr. Welch took a case for me that seemed completely hopeless. I had a 2 year history of struggling with a particular association, barely able to make contact and results were rare. Stuart stepped in, got his foot in the door, wouldn't back down and within a month had the entire case resolved. Not ...
