Since founding Gordon, Wolf & Carney, Chtd. in 2000, Mr. Wolf has litigated almost exclusively class actions and mass torts on behalf of plaintiffs in the areas of consumer law and eminent domain. In his more than 20 years of experience as a trial lawyer, Mr. Wolf has represented both plaintiffs and defendants in a variety of cases: inverse condemnation, marine insurance coverage, wrongful repossession of vehicles, estate disputes, electric and gas utility administrative hearings, just to name a few. Most often, however, he has represented consumers and others who feel powerless against big government and big business. He has tried cases to multi-million dollar verdicts, and has settled class actions on behalf of thousands of plaintiffs for many millions of dollars.
Mr. Wolf is a member of the litigation team that was named 2009 Trial Lawyers of the Year by the Maryland Association for Justice. In 2010, the firm was named Consumer Lawyers of the Year by the National Association of Consumer Advocates. Mr. Wolf is a graduate of the University of Maryland School of Law and the Johns Hopkins University. He is a Catholic Deacon of the Archdiocese of Baltimore and volunteers as a high school yuth minister.
