Tiana N. Boardman

As the firm's Managing Attorney, Tiana Boardman oversees the operations of Hansel Law, but her leadership doesn't stop at our doorway. Tiana has been with the firm since its inception and has seized every opportunity to amplify the voices of our clients in order to facilitate change. Tiana has testified before the Maryland legislature on a variety of social justice bills with significant impact on minority communities. She has also testified in favor of legislative reform before committees of the Maryland Court of Appeals. In fact, while marching for justice during the nationwide awakening to police misconduct, Tiana was interviewed on WYPR.

Tiana attended University of Baltimore School of Law part-time as an evening student which allowed her to obtain her degree while also continuing to work with our clients. During her time there, she served on the board of University of Baltimore Students for Public Interest (UBSPI) for three years. During the pandemic, she volunteered as a student mentor with the UB LEADS program and the Black Law Students Association (BLSA) mentorship program to help facilitate a smooth transition for the incoming 1L students. She spent her final semester as a Rule 19-220 student attorney with the Baltimore County Office of the Public Defender where she passionately argued for her clients’ release from incarceration. Tiana also served as the inaugural Student Chair of the Civil Rights and Constitutional Law Section of the Maryland Association for Justice.

Tiana focuses her growing practice on police and correctional misconduct cases.
When she is not zealously advocating for our clients, Tiana can usually be found at a tattoo convention, listening to live music at one of the many community art spaces in Baltimore, or making Tik Toks about legal issues.
