hi fellas. I am really happy that I found this website. this website is crazy resourceful.  so much information, 

I started out investing in tax lien last year. I won some tax liens from the auction. all redeemed but one.  right now I am starting the process of foreclosure the right redemption process. 

I would like some recommendations of foreclosure attorney for prince's George County, Maryland. someone with a great deal of experience on tax lien foreclosure.  I appreciate all your input. thank you all.

@Harry Zhao MD has a Judiciary Case Search website. I suggest you search that website:

Party Type=Plantiff, 

Case Type=Civil,

Court System=Both (I think it's actually Circuit, but both will get that)

County Name=PG County, 

Timeframe=2yrs (from at least 6mos ago) i.e. this is 4/20/2019, I'd pick 01/01/2016 : 12/31/2018) 

...export that data to Excel, do it again for another last name letter, export again (& repeat as many times as you like).  Sort all the cases according to Case Type.  Your looking for "RD" (Foreclosure of the Right of Redemption), maybe FRDs or Foreclosure or anything that looks like that.  I think you'll need a large data set since RDs will be a small subset of the cases PG courts handle.  The abbreviations can vary across counties, can't recall what PG uses.

Then check a bunch of the RD cases for the Atty Names, you're looking for those with the highest counts. You will see that there are only a few that have high counts & start your inquiry with those. Those with high counts often specialize and have a well-oiled-machine to process those numbers. 

If you want to do a step further, while you are grabbing atty names, get the start and close dates and dispositions.  That will tell you who has the fastest process times and best results.  As with everything about Tax Liens, due diligence is crucial. Speed is your friend in this. Don't be afraid to fire and atty that is not performing well and then try another one.

I didn't answer your question simply - I've done better than that by giving a lesson in about how to fish in this pond.  You can take that practice to any other county or state that does TLs.  If you don't want to do the homework, there is yet another option - hire an abstractor or law student at about $50/hr to do the above for you and just get the spreadsheet from them.  

If you get specific recommendations, I'd still run the search outlined and see how that reco stacks up against the herd.  If you are paying attention to the search results, you will also see who your TL competition is since their name(s) will pop up regularly too - another helpful data point is to see who they are using.

Good Luck & Welcome to TLs!
