About Anjelica N.
Anjelica N. Harden is admitted to practice law in both Maryland and Virginia. She holds current membership in the Maryland State Bar and is licensed to appear before state courts in the two jurisdictions. Her professional credentials reflect the cross-border nature of legal work in the Mid-Atlantic.
Harden’s legal career has unfolded in private practice. She is based at Dugan, McKissick & Longmore, LLC, where she handles matters governed by Maryland and Virginia law. Colleagues describe her as deliberate and attentive to procedural detail. Clients see an attorney who moves methodically through statutes, rules and filings to resolve the issues they bring to her.
Her membership in the Maryland State Bar remains active, and that connection keeps her engaged with developments in that state’s legal community. Being admitted in both Maryland and Virginia allows her to manage cases that touch both jurisdictions. It also requires staying current on changes in two court systems, two sets of procedural rules and overlapping statutory schemes.
In practice she combines transactional work and contested matters. That means advising clients, drafting documents and appearing in hearings when disputes need to be resolved. She is familiar with courtroom procedures in the regional courts where she appears and prepares filings intended to meet judges’ expectations. The work demands careful preparation, and she structures each matter to account for deadlines and evidentiary needs.
Harden’s day-to-day work involves counseling clients on legal rights and options, negotiating where settlement is appropriate and taking persistent steps when litigation is necessary. She emphasizes clear communication about what to expect and the timing of key events. Those elements help clients weigh risks and make informed choices about how to proceed.
She currently practices at Dugan, McKissick & Longmore, LLC, handling legal matters in Maryland and Virginia.
