TNS Attorneys Author Chapters in Protective & Peace Order Cases in Maryland: A Practice Manual

Alexis L. Holiday, Faith Zellman Khan, and Alexandra N. Comegys contributed to Protective & Peace Order Cases in Maryland: A Practice Manual.

A Reference for Maryland Practitioners

The Maryland protective order practice manual is a guide for attorneys handling protective and peace order matters, covering procedure, strategy, and courtroom considerations. These cases move on compressed timelines, and the consequences reach into housing, employment, firearm rights, and custody. A practitioner walking into a final protective order hearing without command of the procedure is not in a position to serve the client well.

From the Manual to the Podium

The manual has since become the foundation for CLE instruction. Alexis, Faith, and Ally presented at the MSBA’s July 2026 webinar on handling peace and protective order cases in Maryland, teaching from the same material.

We’re proud to see our team’s work reflected in a publication that supports both new and experienced attorneys in representing clients in these sensitive, high-impact cases.
