I endorse this lawyer's work. As a fellow member of the National College of DUI Defense, I know Karen to be one of a very few Wisconsin Attorneys who will actually fight to win a DWI case and protect the rights of her clients. Far too many attorneys take these cases without any of the requisite expertise to properly fight these cases and they often have few options other than to plead guilty. Karen Missimer has taken steps carefully calculated to gain the knowledge necesary to fight a DUI/DWI case in Wisconsin

There is no one I would more readily recommend for drunk driving related cases in Wisconsin than Karyn Missimer.

Karyn is different from most lawyers who practice DUI defense because she spends a great deal of time sharpening her skills through attending the most challenging levels of continuing education available throughout the country. Obtaining this training requires a huge commitment of time and money, and most lawyers will spend neither hoping to get by on what they already know or think they know. On the other hand, year after year Karyn gets better educated and does so for one reason only — she knows that the better trained she is, the better the results she can obtain for her clients. If you’re charged with DUI in Wisconsin then I highly recommend and endorse Karyn. She will use her training and skill to obtain the best results on your case.

Dear Karyn: It has been a real pleasure getting to know you over the past few years. Ever since meeting you at one of our National College of DUI Defense seminars, I have come to find that although we are privileged to be part of such a small, prestigious group of truly accomplished and nationally known DUI attorneys, you are one of the more innovative and respected among their peers inside this very select group. Thank you for sharing your defense strategies and your overall knowledge on how to beat these very difficult cases. As one very well known DUI attorney said, “If it were easy, everybody would be doing it.” But we know that the vast majority of attorneys simply are not capable of winning these tough scientific cases. Well, now I know why you win so many. Great seeing you! Thanks again for your fine company and your expertise on how to beat these seemingly unwinnable cases. Chris Cessna Attorney at Law Denver, CO

It is clear from Ms. Missimer's achievements and commitment in the National College for DUI Defense that she is one of the (unfortunately) small number of attorneys that are committed to being true DUI warriors for their clients.

Attorney Missimer has demonstrated a clear commitment to excel as a high quality DUI defense lawyer. Her continued commitment to mastering the complex scientific nature of DUI litigation sets her practice apart from the average attorney.

An endorsement of Karyn could rightfully center on her deep knowledge of the law. By itself, that would be enough reason for me to endorse her.

Karyn extends her personal qualities to her clientele and that is what sets her apart!

Very knowledgeable and consistently well-prepared.

Karyn is extremely knowledgable about OWI/DUI defense and aggressively defends her clients.

Consequences for a conviction for DUI are very significant and the penalties are becoming tougher every day. The penalties can be measured not only in terms of jail, loss of license, but also in many other potential aspects outside of the courtroom such as potential loss of your job, economic hardship that may result as well as a potential loss of self-esteem or the stigmata of being convicted of a crime. Attorney Missimer is a fellow member of the National College for DUI Defense. This is a group of like-minded attorneys from all over the US who are the highest qualified and most dedicated set of attorneys who strive constantly towards achieving a singular goal--that is to minimize or eliminate the potential adverse consequences that come with the government's accusation. I am proud that she is a member and can verify that her practice is in keeping with that fine tradition of ethically and professionally challenging the government's accusations and trying to preserve individual liberties and freedoms.

Karyn is an energetic, smart attorney who tirelessly protects her clients' rights. I would highly recommend her.

Karen has boldly entered one of America's toughest areas of criminal defense -- DUI/DWI/OWI litigation. She set up her practice in America's Number 1 state (per capita) for impaired drivers --- Wisconsin. She understands the difficulty factor and has undertaken to educate herself by way of the most advanced-level seminars. The level of skill required to win these cases, in my opinion, can come no other way. If you face the dire consequences of a drunk driving conviction, hire an OWI attorney like Karen who has both the HEART to defend and the GUTS to say "Ready for Trial". Fighting these cases takes a true warrior. Warriors like Karen are rare in an era when more and more people look for the EASY way out.

Karyn is very well schooled in this field and is an excellent and thorough attorney.

Karyn is one of the best DUI lawyers in the state. She has experience in the area well beyond what her years of practice would suggest. If I were facing a DUI charge, I would hire this attorney to defend me.
