Criminal Defense 100%

I aggressively fight for the rights of criminal defendants. I challenge police conduct to make sure that the policy procedure was followed on every case. I fight to keep questionable evidence out of the courtroom. I am the defense attorney that fights as hard as the government does to keep you out of jail.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Where to begin? Literally, one year ago, to the day, we found ourselves in need of an attorney for our son, who had been picked up and charged with two VERY serious felonies. Kareem's name was given to us from another attorney. We contracted him and he was at our house the next day, and we li...ve in Monroe. We knew he was our attorney within minutes of starting the conversation. Has a commanding presence, and comes across very confident. He left our home, went straight to the court to file, and went to see our son, who was in Wayne County. Even our son, nervous of course, was very pleased with the way Kareem came across, reassuring our son that he had his back. We get through the lower court, knowing it was going to end up at Frank Murphy. Kareem was not worried. From day 1, at trial, Kareem's presence was felt. He did exactly what you would hope your attorney would do...he stood his ground, not backing down from the prosecutor, nor the judge. He really was in his groove, and you could see it! Kareem fought hard...fought eloquently...and fought with knowledge. Was reciting past cases, for reference points... he was quoting laws, verbatim...it was really incredible. In the end, our son was acquitted of the initial charges, but the judge allowed the jury to "find guilty of a lesser charge". If you truly need a solid attorney, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kareem Johnson. He is the guy you want in your corner.

Great Criminal Defense Lawyer

Attorney Kareem Johnson is a great lawyer. He is trustworthy, responds to all calls no matter what time I call him. If I reach his voicemail, he always calls back. He is very knowlegeable of the law and kept me well informed through out my son's trial. My son was charged w/ armed robbery and was abl...e to get my son a lessor charge in trial from an all white jury. (My son is African American). He said from day one that my son did not commit an arm robbery, but a smash and grab. He fought hard and got the charge that we wanted. My son is 19 years of age, now has a chance to get his life back together, and record espunged . I recommend him and consider him my lawyer in the future if I ever need him again. (hopefully not)

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
