Stephen Johnson, Criminal defense Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse this lawyer. I have followed Attorney Kenyon in his career as District Attorney, Assistant Public Defender and as Private Legal Counsel. I am impressed by the breadth of his knowledge in Criminal and DUI law. He is passionate in his defense of his clients. I have known him for over 20 years and highly recommend this skilled advocate.
Andrew Mishlove, DUI and DWI Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I endorse Charles Kenyon. I recall that that in the late 1970s, when I was a law student intern, learning criminal defense in Madison, Wisconsin, I would see Mr. Kenyon fighting for his clients in court. I was impressed then, and I am still impressed. He is an intelligent and dedicated advocate. I am happy to make this endorsement. Andrew Mishlove
