Dundalk Criminal Defense Lawyer
Facing charges in Dundalk requires a defense that reflects how Baltimore County courts operate—especially the District Courts in Essex, Catonsville, and Towson, and the Baltimore County Circuit Court. FrizWoods attorneys Luke Woods and Max Frizalone defend DUI, assault, drug, theft, probation, and serious felony cases throughout Dundalk and surrounding areas.
What We Handle in Dundalk
- DUI/DWI: MVA elections, interlock strategy, and motions that exclude weak evidence
- Assault/Domestic: Self‑defense, credibility problems, and body‑cam/911 contradictions
- Drug Charges: Possession/PWID, vehicle/home/phone searches, warrants, and lab issues
- Felony Defense: Violent/property felonies with complex discovery
- Theft/Property: Shoplifting to burglary
- Bench Warrants/Probation: Warrant recalls and violation hearings
Our Defense Framework
- Immediate plan: release, evidence preservation, and mitigation
- Demand discovery & investigate: BWC, CAD, 911, lab, witnesses, and scene review
- File targeted motions: stops, searches, statements, and expert/lab reliability
- Choose the path: negotiation vs. trial with clear risk ranges
Evidence We Press
- Was the stop lawful, and was expansion justified?
- Were SFSTs correctly instructed, administered, and scored?
- Were statements voluntary and compliant with Miranda?
- Did breath or blood testing follow required protocols?
- Did any search exceed consent or lack probable cause/warrant?
Mitigation That Matters
We focus on actions Baltimore County judges value: treatment (when warranted), employment or school verification, community support, and credible letters. We avoid tasks that don’t move results.
