You know the law. You know your arguments. Now, MSBA gives you the practical, essential information you need before you appear in court or navigate the state’s agencies.

The Guide to Maryland Courts & Agencies is the most comprehensive, practitioner-oriented resource of its kind in Maryland: an all-in-one reference compiling the logistical, operational, and jurisdiction-specific details attorneys need for effective practice across state, county, federal, and administrative forums.

For every court in Maryland, the Guide provides:

• Key contact information for clerks, administrators, and court personnel
• Security protocols, including prohibited items, screening requirements, and attorney-entry rules (e.g., distinctions between general entry, MSBA security passes, and courthouse-specific procedures) 
• Courthouse and courtroom technology, from evidence presentation systems and WiFi access to remote-hearing capabilities, JERS availability, and audio-visual support
• Accommodations and accessibility, including ADA coordinators, lactation rooms, service-animal policies, interpreter services, ramp/elevator access, and required accommodation request forms
• Parking and transportation, with detailed guidance on garages, metered parking, shuttle routes, public transit options, and accessibility paths

Substantially expanded and updated for 2025, the Guide to Maryland Courts & Agencies now also includes information regarding:

• U.S. court-related agencies,
• Maryland court-related agencies,
• Executive departments, and
