Senior Attorney, Of Counsel.
A graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, MO, Mitch is licensed to practice law in Maryland, the District of Columbia, the US District Court for the District of Maryland and the United States Supreme Court.
With experience gleaned from trying cases for the Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office, Mitch has represented clients in several high-profile homicide cases and has obtained excellent results in all of them. He has handled eleven first-degree murder cases to date and has won every trial. His most recent victory was in Prince George's County, MD where, after a hung-jury in the first trial, the jury in the second trial deliberated for barely an hour before finding the client not guilty of first degree murder.
In cases where his clients prefer to negotiate a plea rather than going to trial, Mitch has an excellent record of keeping his clients out of jail. In most situations, this is accomplished by anticipating what the judge will want to see and then helping his clients arrange to get it done. In appropriate cases, to prepare for sentencing, Mitch helps his clients obtain evaluations and/or treatment for mental health or addiction issues.
Mitch has also taught graduate-level classes in criminal law and criminal justice, and enjoys helping people understand the system.
