Bensville sits in the northwest corner of Charles County, a fast-growing suburb of homes and young families just south of the Prince George’s County line. Many residents commute north for work, which means daily traffic and more stops, crashes, and tickets than a small town would expect.
At The Law Offices of Haskell & Dyer, we help Bensville families handle it. We explain your options in plain words and help you take a smart next step.
A Charles County case is handled in La Plata, about 20 minutes south of Bensville. Traffic tickets, DUI charges, and most misdemeanors go to the District Court at 200 Charles Street. Felonies, jury trials, larger civil cases, and probate go to the Circuit Court at the same Charles Street complex. If you were stopped over the Prince George’s line, your case may sit in Upper Marlboro, and we will tell you which.
