This writing will take you into a deep dark cavern of societal introspective beliefs that may shatter
some of your old established thought processes. It also tells a story about a boy who goes through the
school of hard knocks. Hopefully, you will like him and identify with him in some ways. His tale will
take you on a journey where your protagonist ultimately succeeds against terrible odds. You will be
introduced to some shocking realities about how families are totally fucked…This writing will take you into a deep dark cavern of societal introspective beliefs that may shatter
some of your old established thought processes. It also tells a story about a boy who goes through the
school of hard knocks. Hopefully, you will like him and identify with him in some ways. His tale will
take you on a journey where your protagonist ultimately succeeds against terrible odds. You will be
introduced to some shocking realities about how families are totally fucked up because of alcoholic or
drug addict parents, and how sexual and physical abuse can shape your critical thinking abilities, and
totally knock you out of the game before you even begin. An introduction to the addictive qualities of
pornography and how it affects the male brain is intricately woven into the narrative. You will begin
to understand the reality and consequences of this disorder that I call “Tthe “Ttrilogy Mmodum,”,
meaning manner, mode, way, or method in Latin.
It is my hope that the therapeutic industry will begin to recognize that these fundamental schisms
are a major underpinning of depression and psychological imprinting on so many lives. I really believe
that these issues are so prevalent in society that any competent mental health caregiver should actually
start with these concepts in mind. Not just the individual concepts, but also the particular deadly elixir
that this combination of events causes. When that occurs, the “Ttrilogy Mmodum” will become a
more widely diagnosed trilogy that may open the door to set people free in their imprisoned worlds.
It is important to me that I endeavor to at least present different options to my reader. That’s
why I wrote a chapter on habits and methodologies to be successful in business and life. I believe
deeply that a lawyer’s job has nothing to do with business in general because of ethical and traditional
obligations. But I also realized that practicing law is a “business within a business.” -

Examples of Cases handled
-
• Representation of a 17 year old man in Anne Arundel County who was accused of raping a minor. The issue as Mr. Crawford saw it was whether the State of Maryland should continue to use the antiquated separate systems where a person who is close to the age of majority (18) and can be charged as a juvenile or adult should only be classified as one or the other. Currently Maryland uses these two distinct systems where a Defendant is either charged as an adult or a juvenile. Mr. Crawford has…
• Representation of a 17 year old man in Anne Arundel County who was accused of raping a minor. The issue as Mr. Crawford saw it was whether the State of Maryland should continue to use the antiquated separate systems where a person who is close to the age of majority (18) and can be charged as a juvenile or adult should only be classified as one or the other. Currently Maryland uses these two distinct systems where a Defendant is either charged as an adult or a juvenile. Mr. Crawford has urged the legislature to create a “blended” juvenile system so that a juvenile can be charged as an adult but receive the services as a juvenile. Mr. Crawford was successful in handling that case. New story handled by Fox 45, WBAL, Channel TV2.
• Representation of an individual accused of selling CDS in Baltimore City by police officers who arrested him and subsequently beat him up on two occasions. Fox news 45 interviewed Mr. Crawford where he explained he was able to have the charges against his client dismissed in Toto. Mr. Crawford is currently handling a civil law suit against the two police officers.
• Representation of a long time worker at Catholic Charities accused of sexually molesting a client for years. The client was charged in Baltimore county. News story was handled by Fox 45 Baltimore.
• Representation of a professional Basketball player in Anne Arundel County. The case was resolved so that there were no implications against the player that would affect his playing career.
• Representation of a young man who was accused of various serious sex offenses in Baltimore County Maryland. The charges were crippling in that any conviction would have ruined the Defendant’s life. After a thorough investigation Mr. Crawford was able to have the case dismissed. -
