About

I started my career working as a prosecutor in the Baltimore City State's Attorney's Office. From 2003 to 2007, I prosecuted cases ranging from simple misdemeanors to complex felonies. I came to the conclusion that the criminal justice system in Baltimore was disfunctional and often treated people unfairly, especially the poor and vulnerable. I left because I wanted to help people and because I did not want to continue to be part of the failed war on drugs.In 2007, I was fortunate enough to join the Maryland Office of the Public Defender. I left in 2016 to start a private practice.You can read more about me on my website http://www.williamcookelaw.com.

I’ve had 2 experiences with William and both were outstanding. He goes above and beyond to make your case for the best outcome. Be honest with him and he will do a great job for you.

Recommended by the neighbor, Mr. Cooke took on our case after my fiance met with him. Mr. Cooke heard the true and complicated situation my fiance found himself in. I was so confident in the competency of Mr. Cooke that I went ahead and purchased baseball tickets for a date after the hearing. My fiance could have gone to jail for a few years based on his record, but somehow Mr. Cooke's presence and knowledge prevented that. My fiance didn't go to jail because justice prevailed on Mr. Cooke's side. He is a great lawyer. Prayers answered, justice served, and life rolls on.

Mr. Cooke helped me with a criminal matter which was resolved today in my favor. He is a phenomenal, down to earth lawyer. He's not afraid to stand up for you. He was aggressive and stayed in touch with me frequently. He gets five stars from me without hesitation.
