Thank you to The Holland Law Firm for naming Civil Justice as a cy pres recipient in Shadrin v. Hunter Warfield! This class action protected Maryland tenants from illegal interest charges imposed by their landlords. Civil Justice is grateful for this important recognition.

Marylanders should be able to live free from discrimination. My office and the Maryland Commission on Civil Rights created a new “Know Your Rights” guide to help Marylanders understand the civil rights protections under state law.

Read the guide: marylandattorneygeneral.gov/press/2025/0...

You have rights – and starting TODAY (July 1st), your landlord will be required by the state to inform you of them! New leases will come with an 8pg document, called the 'Tenants Bill of Rights'. This is a huge step forward for making sure tenants know their rights while we fight to expand them!
