I am so sorry to learn of the loss of Atty. Ramsey. I was a former client of his and he really knew his employment law. Does anyone know if someone else took over his business. I would definitely like to know. Such a loss for so many.

I am Norris's second cousin. While he was here in Baltimore, I had a private detective agency after my Baltimore Police Department career. His law firm hired me, and subsequently, I worked directly with him after he retired. It's always pleasurable to work with familiar and relatable "Peeps." Thank you, Norris. Because of you, our family legacy lives on, continues to serve, and advocates for those who are not given a voice.
