How I Can Help Your Child
Has your child has been charged with a crime and is a student of UMCP or another Maryland college? He or she may be facing criminal penalties as well as possible penalties assigned by the University Judicial Board or Office of Student Conduct. I represent students in criminal as well as academic proceedings involving the following charges:
- Criminal offenses – Such as DUI/DWI/drunk driving, underage drinking, drug offenses, disturbing the peace, theft, shoplifting or sexting
- Academic Dishonesty – Such as plagiarism, cheating, breaking the honor code
- Student Misconduct – Such as verbal or physical threats, damaging property, alcohol or drug use on campus
It is my goal to work for your child’s best interests. This usually involves close parental involvement. With your child’s permission, I can keep you informed of all case developments. Together, we can seek a favorable resolution to your child’s case.
