Maryland Criminal Defense Lawyers with Decades of Experience

Prosecution Experience Plus Defense Experience Equals Results

When you face criminal charges and a possible prison sentence and criminal record, who can provide the experienced criminal defense help you need? As prosecutors work to prepare a strong case against you, do you have an attorney who is likely to determine the prosecutors' strategy and provide a well-prepared response and defense?

Richard Arnold of the Law Offices of Richard P. Arnold worked as 1) a criminal prosecutor, and 2) as a chief special counsel for the attorney general of the State of Maryland for a combined 17 years. As a former prosecutor, Mr. Arnold can most often anticipate prosecutors':

  • Prosecution tactics and methods
  • Negotiation strategies

Additionally, we know the limits prosecutors face. We know how much time and financial resources they have to bring to your case. We know when they are bluffing during negotiations. And we know when their case is weak, allowing us to make few if any concessions in negotiations.

Available to Clients When Clients Need Us

The hours of 9 to 5 have little bearing on the legal needs of our clients and prospective clients. Criminal charges are leveled most often at night. Pre-charge investigations can be initiated at any time. And domestic violence charges and other charges can occur early in the morning, or after midnight.

When you need legal help, we work hard to be there. Our office phone connects to our cell phones, meaning that we are usually available late at night, on weekends and before usual office hours. For experienced, effective and flexible legal help when you need it, contact our firm.
