About Erica
Erica Wilkinson earned her law degree from William H. Bowen School of Law. She is admitted to practice in Maryland and Arkansas and built a career that moves between public interest work and private practice. Her legal training at Bowen gave her a grounding in litigation and client counseling that she has applied across a range of roles.
Wilkinson began her post-law school work as a staff lawyer at Maryland Legal Aid in 2021. That role placed her on the front lines of client representation in an organization that handles high volumes of civil matters for low-income residents. She moved to private practice in 2022, joining The Law Offices of James A. Crawford, Jr. & Associates as a lawyer. The following year she worked at Sanchez Garrison & Associates, where she continued to expand her experience in courtroom work and case management.
In 2024 Wilkinson took on two new roles. She joined The Law Office of Jayson A. Soobitsky, PA as of counsel, adding a consultative layer to her practice. That same year she established The Wilkinson Law Office and serves as its managing lawyer. The change reflects a shift from employee roles toward running her own practice and overseeing client matters from intake through resolution.
Professional memberships track her geographic base and practice orientations. She is a member of the Maryland State Bar, the Bar Association of Baltimore City and the Baltimore County Bar Association. She also belongs to the Maryland Bankruptcy Bar Association. Those memberships place her in the networks that handle local court procedures and specialty matters in the Baltimore metropolitan area.
Colleagues and clients describe her work as steady and practical. She balances courtroom experience from her years at private firms with the client-centered approach learned at legal aid. Her practice involves legal research, drafting pleadings and advising clients on procedural and substantive questions. She manages case workflows and maintains contacts across county and state courts in the region.
Erica Wilkinson’s current practice integrates her public interest background and private practice experience. She runs The Wilkinson Law Office while maintaining a role as of counsel at a separate firm, and she handles matters in both Maryland and Arkansas. Her current practice focuses on client representation in civil matters across those jurisdictions.
