Attorney Information

Overview

Any lawyer can dedicate their life to studying the law, attending seminars and becoming an expert in the legal process. However, at the end of the day, a jury is comprised of twelve members of the community with little to no legal experience. An effective trial attorney is someone to whom the jury can relate. Your attorney must be able to present your case in terms that make sense in light of the evidence against you. You can hire an attorney who has published a number of articles that appear in legal publications. Or, you can hire an attorney about whom articles are written after he wins important cases.

Thomas C. Mooney is gifted at the art of persuasion. He endears himself to the jury like few others. His recent successes in the Courtroom (See Articles) are a reflection of his dedication to the practice of law. He will stand up for you and represent you like he's arguing for a family member.

Thomas C. Mooney was honored with the 2011 Trial Lawyer of the Year Award by the Maryland Association for Justice (MAJ). The MAJ Trial lawyer of the year Award is bestowed upon the Maryland trial lawyer who has made the greatest contribution to the public interest by litigating cases of precedential value-either because they changed the law in a way that is beneficial to Marylanders or has, for other reasons, "sent a message" to those who might otherwise trample upon the rights of Maryland citizens.

Thomas C. Mooney has been recognized in Super Lawyers since 2013, 14 consecutive years, for his dedication and excellence in the practice of law. He was also named in Baltimore Magazine's Maryland Top Attorneys in Maryland.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

How long have you been in practice?
How many cases like mine have you handled?
How often do you settle cases out of court?
What are your fees and costs?
What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
