"Geneva Penson learned her solid grounding in criminal defense work handling death penalty cases at the State Appellate Defender's office in Chicago. She was known as a dogged, tireless and dedicated defense attorney as well as a good and honest human being. It is the community's gain that she is now in private practice."
