Maryland Personal Injury Law

My name is Phil Santa Maria, and I am a Maryland personal injury lawyer.

What’s this Website About?

I’ve created this website to give you information about personal injury law claims in Maryland resulting from car accidents , motorcycle accidents , truck accidents , medical malpractice , falls , animal bites and defective products.

I have included discussions of some of the most common accidental injuries, such as neck injuries and brain injuries.

I also describe the claims process and how trials are conducted in Maryland. If you are involved in a Maryland personal injury law claim that is pending in court, be sure to review my tips for deposition witnesses and my list of typical deposition questions in a car accident case.

What are my Expert Qualifications?

What are my qualifications as an expert in Maryland personal injury law?

I finished in the top 10% of my law school class and was a member of the Editorial Board of our Law Review. I have earned the right to practice before the highest courts in Maryland, the District of Columbia and California. I’ve also been admitted to practice in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the United States Supreme Court. I’m even admitted to practice before the Court of Military Appeals.

During my career, I have handled thousands of personal injury claims. I’ve handled million dollar cases and small cases where the recovery was only a few thousand dollars . . . and all size cases in between.

I’ve been given the highest possible rating for legal skill and ethics by the prestigious Martindale Hubbell Law Directory peer rating system. It’s gratifying to know that your peers – other lawyers and judges – respect your ability and your ethics.

I’ve also appeared for many years in Who’s Who in American Law which honors about 2 ½ percent of American lawyers. Earlier in my career, I was awarded an entry in Outstanding Young Men in America. Unfortunately, I’m no longer eligible for that listing because of the “young” requirement. I’ve been a lawyer for more than 25 years.

Million Dollar Advocates Forum

I’m a lifetime member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum , a group of lawyers who have successfully handled million dollar cases. Currently, the Forum includes less than 1% of American lawyers.
