InjuryLawyerDatabase aggregates publicly available data in order to provide more transparency on Injury Lawyers in Maryland. Here, we only measure Maryland circuit court cases for which a lawsuit was filed, Jonathan Schochor, (exact spelling), was listed as plaintiff’s counsel, and MD Case Search has a record. Therefore, cases in other states, other courts, and cases settled before suit was filed are not listed. The methodology was the same for all lawyers. (Note: Prince George's County cases are not included.)
