Truly Amazing

I am a recovering addict on probation and parole. Part of my recovery is healing the wreckage of my past. And it has been a painstakingly long process. Since I met Karie, she has not only supported me in my journey, she has saved me from jail time and done her very best in court and out of court to h...elp the courts realize that people DO change and prison isn't always the answer. She is caring, attentive and a true go-getter. This alone sets her apart from the rest.

Top Notch - Knows How to Work The System to Get the BEST Deal for Her Clients!

I have used Karie about five different times in the last year. She has always gone out of her way to make sure MY case is her TOP priority. (I'm sure everyone thinks this!). Karie is such a go-getter and so energetic and ready to take on any challenge put before her. On one of my cases she went a...gainst one of the most nationally well known firms and she did not flinch! We won! In fact, Karie has won every case she has worked for me. Yes, I would recommend her!

Legal Representation that genuinely cares!

I have used Karie Pennington on multiple occasions. Every time I need her, she always goes above and beyond. She goes that extra mile and does not settle for just any recommendation a prosecutor gives. Karie has a passion for her clients and it makes all the difference! I have referred her to many fr...iends, all of whom have been nothing short of ecstatic with her results. She will always be the first one I call when I need legal representation!

hardworking caring lawyer!

Amazing. Keeps you informed and up to date. Has gotten me out of so much trouble and always gets me the best deals. Every case of mine she has worked has been amended and least amount of fines possible. Will go far and beyond for her clients and actually cares about each one. I can tell this is more ...than bussiness. She handles my cases as if it was her own. I recomend her before any one else and wouldnt go through any other firm. Thanks karie!

Avvo Rating

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
