The Maryland State Bar Association (MSBA) is a voluntary bar association for the state of Maryland.
If you see misconduct, over-serving, or any other types of negligence, report it to the bar or establishment owner immediately. If you observe an intoxicated individual leaving in a vehicle, immediately contact the police by dialing 911.
If you need any more information about how to file a complaint, you may call the Office of Bar Counsel at (410) 514-7051. Please bear in mind that the Office of Bar Counsel cannot discuss the details of your complaint with you over the telephone.
The Maryland Judiciary provides this information as a public service. Information contained on this web site is believed to be accurate but is not guaranteed. For more information, or to determine if an attorney has been reinstated, please contact the Attorney Grievance Commission at (410) 514-7051.
The directory maintained by the state bar or its disciplinary board is sometimes called the "Roster of Attorneys" or the "Roll of Attorneys." Six (6) states do not publish a searchable database online. In those jurisdictions, you must call or email the state bar to confirm a lawyer's bar license status or bar number.
In order to let the opposing party, or defendant, know you are filing a civil action, you must serve the opposing party with a copy of your complaint. This service is accomplished by issuing a summons through the Clerk's Office. The Court has a standard summons form.
Each database provides different types of information, including the attorney's name, address, phone number, email address, education, area of practice or specialty, and years in practice. Most states provide the attorney's bar number, but some do not. In a few states, the state does not issue a bar license number.
Lawyers are licensed by a state agency in each state. That agency can help you to find out if a person has a law license and is permitted to practice in a particular state.
