Andrew and Cynthia MacDonald were both Wicomico County prosecutors right here on the Eastern Shore. Andrew MacDonald was a well-respected prosecutor for more than 10 years before opening his own criminal defense practice in 2006. Cynthia MacDonald was previously a partner at one of Salisbury’s largest law firms before joining her husband’s practice. We have 20 years of combined experience in criminal law.

We dedicate our entire practice to criminal defense and strive to provide personalized, aggressive representation.

What are the objectives of the MacDonald Law Office?

Our objective is to get our clients the best result possible. The cornerstone of the American criminal justice system is that every person charged with a crime is presumed innocent until the State proves his or her guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. We respect that constitutional right and hold the State to their burden. No matter what type of charges you are facing, we will do everything in our power to avoid a conviction and keep your record clean. We seize any opportunity to get the charges against you dismissed. If the State won’t dismiss the charges, we will get you the best plea offer possible. Local prosecutors know that we are skilled trial lawyers who are ready to take a case to court if they do not treat you fairly. If the State’s plea offer is unacceptable, we will not hesitate to pursue a not guilty verdict in court.

How are clients treated at the MacDonald Law Office?

We treat our clients with respect. Our clients appreciate the personalized service they receive at our law firm. You will work directly with your lawyer throughout the process. We promptly return phone calls, and you always have access to us if questions or concerns arise. Contact our office today for a free consultation. We will take the time to answer your questions and explain your legal options.
