Marot Williamson

Office of the State’s Attorney for Anne Arundel County

Marot Williamson, an assistant state’s attorney in the Office of the State’s Attorney for Anne Arundel County, has built an 18-year career as a prosecutor focused on controlled dangerous substance and related firearm offenses and homicides. Her extensive motions and trial experience has made her a resource for less experienced attorneys in her office, and she has expanded her contributions beyond the courtroom into legal education and advocacy.

Williamson helped develop a continuing legal education program on the authentication and admission of digital evidence at trial — a presentation applicable to criminal, civil and family law practitioners alike. She has delivered it at events hosted by the Maryland State’s Attorney’s Association, the Women’s Bar Association, the Prince George’s County Bar Association, the Maryland State Bar Association, the Cawood and MacGill Inn of Courts and at a training for YWCA attorneys.

In 2024, she joined the Maryland State’s Attorney Association’s Legislative Committee, participating in discussions on pending legislation, testifying before the Maryland General Assembly and helping draft a bill currently pending before the legislature. She was subsequently appointed to the Maryland State Bar Association’s Laws Committee for the 2025 legislative session and continues to serve on the committee, which reviews legislation, considers which issues might be of interest to the broader legal profession and refers legislation to the appropriate sections or committees for additional advocacy.

Her mentorship of a younger colleague extended to guidance on felony cases and direct involvement in two homicide prosecutions. A circuit court judge noted the attorney had benefited from her mentorship.
