Serving the University of Maryland at College Park and Its Community – College Park DUI Lawyer

College Park DUI Lawyer that knows College Park is home to The University of Maryland at College Park, founded in 1856 as the Maryland Agricultural College. The campus was built in part through enslaved labor, a painful part of Maryland’s history that the University now openly acknowledges. The school has made meaningful efforts toward reconciliation, including offering scholarships and programs to descendants of enslaved communities as a form of educational reparations. As a land-grant institution, the University was created to serve the public and continues to do so proudly today.

The University has its own certified campus police department, including mounted patrols. It might sound unusual, but DUIs have been issued by officers on horseback during major events and tailgates. With football games, basketball seasons, and frequent campus gatherings, police presence is significant—particularly on Route 1 (Baltimore Avenue), near Campus Drive, and surrounding neighborhoods like Berwyn Heights, Greenbelt, and University Park.

Alcohol possession and consumption on campus are prohibited under University policy, yet tailgating culture around the stadium often results in alcohol-related charges. Our firm regularly defends students and visitors charged with DUI, disorderly conduct, open container, and alcohol possession violations related to campus events. These cases carry serious academic and professional consequences if not handled correctly.
