Lawyer Allan Rombro | Lawyer Criminal Defense
Do you think you might have a Maryland warrant? If you think you might have a warrant it is important to contact a lawyer with years of experience navigating the warrant process in Maryland. There are several types of warrants and some do NOT appear in the online public database!
A Bench Warrant is issued when you fail to appear in court (FTA) for a mandatory appearance. Many people are shocked to learn they have a bench warrant because they did not understand their appearance was required. Others didn’t receive the court notice and had no idea they missed a court date. Regardless of the reason, if a bench warrant is issued it WILL REMAIN ACTIVE UNTIL YOU RESOLVE IT.
There are two ways to resolve a bench warrant:
Hire an experienced warrant lawyer who will interview you and review the underlying case and then prepare and file a warrant “Recall Petition”. Often warrants are recalled WITHOUT your needing to come to court. In other cases, you must appear in court and Allan Rombro obtains a new court date and works to arrange it with least impact on your life and schedule, especially if you are out of state.
Arrest warrants are often very different than bench warrants and are often “secret” and intentionally NOT entered into the system. An arrest warrant is issued for many reasons and often without your knowledge or awareness. For example, if your neighbor makes a complaint and fills out a report indicating you assaulted him, an arrest warrant can be issued.
Yet another type of warrant is called a “VOP” Warrant or Violation of Parole or Probation warrant. These can occur even if you haven’t been found guilty of a violation. Being charged with or having your case reopened for a suspected violation can be enough to have a warrant issued!
Regardless of the type of warrant, if you suspect you have ANY type of warrant in Maryland, it is essential that you speak with a warrant lawyer quickly to avoid detention in Maryland or your home state. Allan Rombro has been removing Maryland warrants for thirty years and he can help you with any type of Maryland warrant. Don’t risk jailtime, extradition or the unhappy circumstance of being arrested at home or at work.

Do you have an active warrant for failure to appear (FTA) in court? Even routine minor offenses, like some traffic violations can result in the issuance of a bench warrant for your arrest. If you’ve moved and did not ever receive a notice for a court date, you will likely have a warrant issued for your arrest, even though you had no idea your appearance was required. In such cases, the defendant is unaware that a warrant exists and only learn of it when they are involved in a routine traffic stop or other routine contact with police.
They are shocked when they learn they are under arrest and subsequently taken to jail. Bench warrants are also often issued if you fail to appear for any court proceeding, including those related to assault and battery, drug possession, probation violations or other crimes. Are you constantly looking over your shoulder or driving in another direction to avoid a police car? In most cases, Allan Rombro can quickly get your warrant recalled and get a new court date. Eliminating the warrant and obtaining a new court date puts you back in control of your case with no need to worry about dodging authorities.
Termaine JettMarch 4, 2026. Mr. Allan Rombro is the absolute best criminal defense in the Baltimore area!!!

Les CharappJanuary 8, 2026. When they say “professional lawyer,” they truly mean it with Stephen Allen. He sets the bar extremely high for legal professionalism in the Montgomery County / D.C. area. He was recommended by a top-ranked attorney who doesn’t handle traffic cases, and that recommendation proved spot-on. Mr. Allen was fair, honest, and straightforward from start to finish. His pricing was very reasonable, and the value was outstanding. If you have any legal matter at all, speak with Stephen Allen before going anywhere else. One of the best—if not the best—in the area. I’d give him more than 5 stars if I could. Shawn TruesdellOctober 22, 2025. I had a case that a lot of other lawyers told me that was unbeatable. Mr. Rombro attacked my case with a strategic plan and got all 12 of my charges dismissed in preliminary. Best lawyer I’ve ever had.
