In the run up to the Maryland State Bar Association's June Legal Summit, Everyday Law has featured presenters for the 2022 Ocean City event. Jane Santoni and Chelsea Ortega made a recent appearance to discuss the work of their law firm, Santoni, Vocci and Ortega in the field of tenant's rights.

A variety of tenant and consumer protective laws exist both at the state and federal level, which Jane and Chelsea wield on behalf of their clients.
