About Emma
Emma Mulford took a straightforward path into the law. She graduated from the University of Richmond in 2016 with a Bachelor of Arts, then earned her J.D. from the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law in 2019. Those years shaped her legal foundations and sent her into practice in Maryland.
She joined Silverman Thompson as an associate in 2020. Early on she worked on case preparation, legal research and drafting court documents. Colleagues describe her as the kind of associate who handles detail work and carries a steady workload. Her resume shows a rapid transition from law student to courtroom and office responsibilities.
Mulford maintains membership in the Maryland State Bar Association. She participates in the association’s activities and uses the network to stay current on developments in state law. That participation also connects her to local judges, clerks and other lawyers, which helps when complex scheduling or procedural issues arise.
Her practice centers on matters brought in Maryland courts and administrative bodies. She spends much of her time reviewing factual records, preparing briefs and advising clients on procedural options. She also appears in hearings and status conferences. She aims for clarity in filings and for arguments that communicate legal points efficiently to judges and opposing counsel.
Clients and peers encounter an attorney who favors preparation and steady advocacy. Mulford’s work reflects the everyday demands of litigation and client counseling rather than headline-grabbing disputes. She balances office work with court appearances and often handles multiple matters at once. That steadiness has made her a reliable presence at Silverman Thompson since she arrived in 2020.
Outside the courtroom she continues professional development through seminars and the Maryland State Bar Association. Her education and early years in practice keep her connected to developments in Maryland law. She is active in the firm’s caseload and contributes to team efforts on complicated procedural and factual problems.
She currently practices at Silverman Thompson in Maryland, handling client matters brought in state courts and administrative proceedings.
