Please use our Complaint Portal to file your complaint. Please note that all comments or complaints related to the federal administration's executive orders, including actions that are being taken by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), should be filed here.

1. Gather your documents.
Gather any documents that are relevant to your complaint, such as receipts, contracts, leases, repair orders, or sales agreements. You may need to refer to these documents while you are filling out the complaint form.
2. Register for our Complaint Portal to complete your complaint online
When selecting an online complaint form you will be directed to our online complaint portal. On that page, register for an account by selecting Register in the top right corner of the page. Once your registration is complete, you can start a new complaint by choosing the complaint type from the list on the left of your screen or by selecting the Consumer Complaints tab at the top of the page. Be sure to read the Important Information for additional forms and instructions.
3. Send us your Documents
If you file your complaint on our complaint portal, you can attach documents at the time of filing or later by going to the My Cases tab on the top menu bar of the portal and selecting “Add File." Be sure to add your documents to an open case as documents added to a closed case will not be reviewed. If you have more than one open case, each case will be listed by case number with separate “Add File" buttons so you can select the correct case to add your documents. Be sure to read the Important Instructions about uploading documents because not all document types can be accepted. If you have documents you can't submit through the portal you can email, mail, or fax them to us.
You can mail, email, or fax your documents to: Office of the Attorney General Consumer Protection Division 200 St. Paul Place, 16th Floor Baltimore, MD 21202mediator@oag.state.md.us (410) 576-7040 facsimile
