BECAUSE EVERYONE DESERVES A CHAMPION

ABOUT OUR FORWARD-THINKING CRIMINAL DEFENSE FIRM

The Law Office of Stephen P. Shepard, LLC makes premier criminal and DUI/DWI defense both available and affordable to folks throughout Baltimore County, Maryland and surrounding areas.  Top criminal defense attorney Stephen P. Shepard’s extensive experience in handling cases from a traffic ticket to homicide, his dedication to aggressively defending the rights of those accused, and his underlying sense of true compassion towards the people he represents are what set him apart from other attorneys and make him what many consider to be one of the best criminal defense lawyers in Baltimore County.

Stephen founded his forward-thinking criminal defense firm on the following idea:

Premier representation should not be considered a luxury in this great country reserved only for the elite or the super-rich of society – it should be available and affordable to everyone. In other words, it should be a fundamental right. The sole mission of this law firm is to provide the good people of the State of Maryland with that fundamental right.

- Stephen P. Shepard

That idea stemmed from Stephen’s personal opinion that the public defender system in the State of Maryland and throughout the United States is broken and has become far too comfortable with the status quo.  Yet Stephen has also been critical of the private bar, believing that it overly focuses on profiting off good people who find themselves in bad situations.  And so, The Law Office of Stephen P. Shepard, LLC was created to serve as a model for both private and public legal representation and be one of the best criminal defense law firms in Baltimore County.

This was the best possible attorney that I could have asked for. He was very meticulous about all of his work. Never left me in the loop anything I didn’t feel unsure of or had enough knowledge of he would told me exactly what was what. He is very understanding and he knows life throws us lemons sometimes and he is willing to work with people through any situation. If you need a great lawyer, Stephen Shepard is your guy.

Stephen Shepard was the light at the end of the tunnel in the darkest moments of my life. After submitting my reason for a consultation, his office got back to me within an hour and I was able to explain my situation to Stephen and quickly get an appointment. After meeting with Stephen and talking about my situation I quickly realized why his reviews were so positive. I walked into his office a nervous wreck and left feeling relieved and a lot more confident in my situation. He never mentioned a price until my problem had been fixed and rather than telling me a price he asked me what price would be able to work with my budget. He is a man of the people and works day and night trying to help people and expose corruption. He understands how police operate and will stop at nothing to ensure that his clients are treated fairly by the law, I would recommend him to anyone and have full confidence that they will have a great experience with him too.

Mr. Shepard is an amazing attorney as well as a person. He goes above and beyond for his clients, and does whatever he can to help them. He is extremely knowledgeable regarding all aspects of the law, unlike many other attorneys. He is willing to work with people financially. I have never met any other defense attorney that doesn't do this job mostly for monetary gain. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who is looking for a standout attorney, that cares deeply about, and helping his clients.
