Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Maryland

What's with Maryland? It's the worst state for legal consumers. I tried contacted the Maryland State Bar several times regarding my attorney's actions and they never got back to me. Unlike other states, it also has nothing on line to help consumers and no lawyer ethics or standards. Maryland is a horrible state for consumers. Also, the Maryland Bar Referral program is a joke. It took me three weeks to get two referrals. Those lawyers, one of whom was a former president of the Maryland State Bar ethics committee (a joke, considering his unprofessional behavior) had me send them all my personal information and case documents, then never returned my calls or emails. How unprofessional to not even send an email back saying "Not interested." And to not even respond as to what they did with my documents. Not enough money in it for them, clearly, but unprofessional behavior to be sure. Congratulations, Maryland. You're horrible to consumers. I intend to write a nice long article about the unprofessionalism of the Maryland Bar - it's a joke.

This website has nothing to do with the Maryland Bar and is not the appropriate place to air your grievances. I'm sorry you've had a bad experience, but the lawyers who answer legal questions on this site do so for FREE and are under no obligation (legal or moral) to do so.

Best of luck.
