You have a right to be safe in your person, at your workplace and in your home. Unfortunately, every year hundreds of people in Maryland petition the court for a protective order to prevent a family member or loved one from assaulting them. The good news is that most people are able to obtain a temporary restraining order when they apply to the court for help.

I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have come across Joe and her team. Without her guidance and council my life would have been turned upside down, even more so then it already had been. My situation was a bit unique, and Ms. Lynch and her team were there to guide me all the way. My case took place over multiple states and they had the knowhow and professionalism needed to ensure I got the best possible outcome.
I want to be clear, Ms. Lynch does not play around. She is honest and upfront regardless of whether you like it or not. If you want someone to lie and tell you it will be okay when

I called this attorney’s office today. Someone named Susan told me that per law, I’m unable speak to Ms. Lynch or schedule a consultation with her, given that I already have an attorney and needed legal permission from my current attorney before speaking to any other attorney. So, I called my current attorney and “got permission”. We both laughed and he told me that was false. There is no such law.

Josephine Lynch is an exceptional, no-nonsense Lawyer. She is professional and respectful of those she is representing. I love that she is very clear and thorough in her work.
Susannah was an incredible asset to my case as well. She was always consistant in following up with case updates and important emails with forms that needed signatures or important documentation.
I would recommend them to anyone who needs good professional representation. They are a Winning team I would always choose!

I want to begin by saying thank you to Attorney Lynch for for efforts and being a straight up bull dog in that court room helping me secure custody for my Daughter. Im gonna be honest by saying up until the court room battle i was a little worried because for the most part i only communicated with her paralegal and not so much with Ms.Lynch. I would call and request but she was always busy. Non the less i continued with the process and submitted evidence thru her paralegal Susannah(who was so good at responding to my every need). The most i ever spoke to Ms. lynch was the day of and she had already

I pretty much wasted my time. They never wanted my business from the go. I was supposed to have a consultation last week. Sent an email to follow up and was told ooh your email went to the junk folder. Let’s reschedule for next Monday which was today. All this time just to finally speak to the attorney only to be told she was interested in the case. Guess I wasn’t to high profile for her. What a waste of my time. Please keep y’all money and find a better attorney! They knew they weren’t taking the case last week but chose to play games.

Josephine Lynch has been my divorce lawyer for 5 yrs now. She handled my initial case with passion and care. She was completely there for me and her and her office worked tirelessly to get me what I wanted and needed. She also got me the very best settlement deal I could get. She is a force in the courtroom you definitely want on your side. She is completely knowledgeable and intelligent. I've unfortunately had to return to court 3 times for my ex being in contempt. Josephine made each experience as easy and painless for me each time as well as winning without issue every time. She is no nonsense

I highly recommend Josephine Lynch and her office of associates. They thoroughly handled all legal matters regarding my divorce and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. There was always a clear line of communication between her and I. Ms. Susannah in the front office always made sure to call me with updates and made sure I successfully received email correspondence. She truthful while understanding that this was a rough time for me. She setup mediation for me and my ex-wife. She negotiated will on my behalf. She stood up to the opposing lawyer and even called her associate in the middle

I have to say Ms. Lynch was very unprofessional and it was difficult dealing with her. She handled my divorce, but seemed to have dragged it on unnecessarily. My ex and I just wanted to end our marriage quick and easy, and we did everything for her! When she filed the wrong paperwork and my divorce was not granted, she blamed me. Was very argumentative when I questioned her about anything. When my hearing was finally scheduled, she wanted to move the date back for a personal appointment. That was when I had enough, and fired her. Plus, she never refunded the money she said I had due. I

She is a very bad Lawyer. Not competent, lot of show. Do not choose her as your Divorce lawyer, you are going regret. She is not attentive to your concerns and questions. She acts like a high power attorney. I had to support a child but I ended up having to pay alimony for 15 years to a spouse who had more credentials to be employed but chose not to . She does not give advice on any issues. She seems not attentive to your case until the day before the Court Date. At meetings she attends to other business; copying papers or taking phone calls. She does not work for you. I paid a lot for her service

She was my wife's lawyer in our divorce case. She seems so lazy, but she always has an excuse (new secretary-used that one several times, hurt my leg.) She rarely returned calls from my wife, my lawyer, or me. Unprepared; did paperwork for the case at the courtroom. Now she's two months overdue on final paperwork. Very expensive at $350/hr. On the rare occasions she returned my wife's calls it was only to tell her that she owed money--before a bill was even sent. DO NOT HIRE!
