I run a virtual law firm in Maryland and the District of Columbia from my home in Palm Beach Gardens Florida by email and telephone for pro se litigants in family law. (I am a member of the Maryland and District of Columbia Bar) I am the author of "How to Do Your Own Divorce in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia," and "Divorce: A Do-It-Yourself Manual For Marylanders," I am very interested in the potential the role that the role that Internet technology can have in making legal services affordable.

I am presently Co-Chair of the ELawyering Task Force of the Law Practice Management Section of the American Bar Association, whose mission is to help lawyers deliver legal affordable legal services over the Internet to clients of moderate income and serve on the Law Practice Management Council. I am also a liaison member of the Standing Committee on the Delivery of Legal Services of the ABA., which is concerned with developing new methods of delivering legal services to people of moderate means. I am Co-Author of the Best Practice Guidelines for Legal Information Web Site Providers which were adopted by the ABA House of Delegates in February 2003.

In addition, I have been:

* the Coordinator of a pro se project on self-help representation in family law matters. See research on pro se representation at http://www.pro-selaw.org. This is where I learned about the power of self-help, and I maintain this site for others who are interested in this important movement.
* the Founder of the People's Law Library of Maryland. This project taught me about the power of the Web to change peoples lives through the provision of legal information.
* a member of the American Bar Association, the Maryland Bar Association, (and a member of the Family Law Section for both), and the District of Columbia Bar Association. I am a graduate of Columbia University School of Law (J.D.); the University of Pennsylvania, (M.S.); and Lehigh University. (B.A.).
* a member of the core group that started the Civil Justice Network of Maryland.

I have the same wife for 46 years, 4 children, and 5 grandchildren, all of which keeps me busy in my spare time.

Maryland Criminal Attorney
Federal Defense Lawyer Representing Defendants in Baltimore, Annapolis and Throughout Maryland
A "Serious Trial Lawyer" Ready to Fight for Your Rights

If you are facing criminal charges, you are probably at one of the lowest points in your life. At the Law Offices of James E. Crawford Jr. & Associates, our job is to stand next to you in your hour of need and help you get your life back.

My name is Jim Crawford. For the past 18 years, I have defended people who have been charged with crimes in Baltimore, Catonsville, Annapolis, Bel Air and throughout every county and courtroom in Maryland. I handle every type of criminal case from shoplifting to life-changing accusations such as sex crimes and homicide. I am a serious trial lawyer.
A Long History of Success in Criminal Defense Law

My trial experience is extensive. I am in court in front of judges and juries almost every day of my working life. I have tried cases successfully in just about every state and federal courtroom in Maryland.

The experience my staff and I bring to your defense is key to a successful resolution of your case. Our Maryland criminal lawyers provide high-quality, aggressive legal services for our clients. The defense attorneys in my firm are dedicated and highly experienced trial lawyers who are trusted members of the Maryland Bar and the Federal Bar.

Criminal defense is about more than knowing the law; it's also about understanding people. Judges, prosecutors, lawyers, police and defendants all bring variables that can alter the outcome of a criminal case. When I take on a case, I look at the facts, the law as it applies to the charges, and the "human element" and how it will likely affect the case.

The result? Positive outcomes for thousands of clients, a reputation as one of Maryland's most successful criminal defense lawyers and referrals from throughout Maryland and the entire United States.
Federal and State Prosecution

If you are already charged or believe you are under investigation by a state agency such as the police or the federal government, it is extremely important that you retain the services of a highly qualified federal criminal defense attorney like me immediately. In many instances, a prosecution can be avoided or even resolved prior to arrest and or trial. The quicker we have an understanding of the facts, the easier it is to push your case to resolution.

It is also important to understand that there are major differences in the way the federal government handles a prosecution and the way many county and state prosecutors handle cases. The procedures are strikingly different and need to be handled in an entirely different method. Experience and judgment are needed to protect you or someone you know who is on the "radar" of a prosecution.

Federal and state sex offenses
Federal and state child abuse offenses
Federal and state child pornography and computer offenses
Federal and state drug distribution and trafficking offenses
Federal and state drug kingpin offenses
Homicide
Driving while intoxicated
Traffic offenses
All felonies and misdemeanors
Probation and parole violations
Domestic violence

The Law Offices of James E. Crawford Jr. has a long history of successfully handling criminal cases. I know that if you are being prosecuted, it can be a tremendous burden and unbelievably stressful not just for you, but for your family and loved ones. You need someone in your corner who understands the process and can guide you through it. Contact our Maryland criminal lawyers now for a free consultation on your matter.
Contact Me Now - Federal Defense Attorney

If you face criminal charges, contact me, Maryland criminal defense attorney Jim Crawford, before you talk to police or anyone else. I am available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. I offer a free initial consultation.

Education: Cleveland State University

Jurisdictions: 4th Circuit - Admitted in 2007 (5 years), Federal Circuit - Admitted in 2007 (5 years), Maryland - Admitted in 2007 (5 years), District of Columbia - Application Pending - Admitted in 2009 (3 years)

A lifelong resident of Rockville, Maryland, I graduated from Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School (Washington, DC) in 1999.

Thereafter, I pursued my undergraduate degree at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio where I majored in International Affairs and Spanish, with minors in English and Latin American Studies. I was a volunteer English as a Second Language (ESL) instructor at Norwood View Elementary School and a Spanish teacher at the Xavier University Montessori School. My teaching and involvement with other non-profit organizations earned me the Peter J. Buschmann, S.J. Scholarship for Public Service. As a senior at Xavier, I was one of a handful of students inducted into the Sigma Delta Pi, National Collegiate Spanish Honor Society.

After graduating from Xavier in 2003, I attended Cleveland-Marshall College of Law. During law school, I was the Treasurer of the Cleveland-Marshall Chapter of the Delta Theta Phi Law Fraternity (Ranney Senate) and one of the founding members of the National Lawyer’s Guild (Cleveland-Marshall Chapter). My passion for community advocacy led me to become a Legal Observer for several demonstrations, ensuring that individuals’ civil rights were protected, and I taught “Street Law Clinics” during which I educated citizens of their Constitutional civil rights. I was a student practitioner with the Cleveland-Marshall Community Advocacy Clinic, which focused on redevelopment of blighted urban areas of Cleveland, Ohio. Upon graduation from law school, I was awarded the Student Public Interest Law Organization’s Scholarship for Outstanding Service to the Community.

Community Activities:

I am an active member of: The Bar Association of Montgomery County, The Maryland State Bar Association, The Bar Association of Baltimore City, The Women’s Bar Association (Montgomery County Chapter), The Family Law Section of the Montgomery County Bar Association, The Estates & Trusts Section of the Montgomery County Bar Association, and
The National Lawyer’s Guild (Washington, DC Chapter).

I am also involved with community organizations, such as: The Daughters of the American Revolution (Junior Member – Janet Montgomery Chapter), The Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School Young Alumnae Association, The Xavier University National Alumni Association (Washington, DC Chapter), and The Xavier University Capital Alumni Network softball team.
