BECAUSE EVERYONE DESERVES A CHAMPION

ABOUT OUR FORWARD-THINKING MARYLAND LAW 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.  Principal Attorney Stephen P. Shepard’s experience in handling cases from a simple speeding ticket to homicide, his dedication to aggressively defending the rights of those accused, and his underlying sense of compassion towards the people he represents are what set him apart from other attorneys.

Stephen founded his forward-thinking law firm business model 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.

We contacted Stephen and were pleased that he met with us on a weekend. From the first meeting, we knew we had made the right decision. Stephen was patient, thorough and considerate. He knew the law and carefully explained our options. He listened to our concerns and was available whenever we had questions. He made what was a difficult time for us go by smoothly and he handled our court appearances professionally, presenting our case well. We liked the app that allowed for sending and receiving messages and documents - this was very convenient. All in all, we were totally satisfied. Stephen is a great and caring lawyer.

Martindale Review
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.
