Stephen P. Karns

Contacted Mr. Karns to get ahead of the curve in my case. He kept constant contact and between him and his paralegal Rob, I was able to focus on work knowing they were behind the scenes working towards the best possible outcome for me. My case ended in a fair outcome, but that was not the fault of M...r. Karns. He impressed me with his demeanor and enthusiasm, I have no regrets consulting him, would retain him in future legal matters

Mr. Karns is top notch in his representation and doesn't waste any time. Many people are deluded when they are presented with charges especially in the military that as long as they are innocent it will work out in their favor. I was brought up on allegations on a Friday afternoon and decided with ...my military career on the line, it best if I retain counsel. I called Mr Karns office on a Saturday afternoon, he returned my call same day, and offered over an hour of free consultation, and gave me advice on how to proceed regardless of whom I selected for counsel. I ultimately retained his services Sunday afternoon, and he reached out to take care of the matter same day. By Tuesday afternoon my situation was resolved with no negative repercussions. Worth every penny.

Mr. Karns and Rob were very helpful, kind, and encouraging for helping me protect my innocence. I was accused of larceny for something that was bought in my name and sent to me. I thought it was mine and the company even told me that it was. My Commander, at the time, believed in the harshest pun...ishments. He tried to give me an Article 15 but Mr Karns, the ADC, and I all fought it. I decided not to take it to a Court Martial because the risks seemed higher than the reward at the time. I took the case up to a General and showcased what Mr. Karns and Rob had helped me put together to prove my innocence. I had more character reference letters than they in "proof" against me. I had multiple pages of charitable giving and witness statements of people seeing me help others. I had donated 24 times the amount of money in the year that I had received this gift further showing that I would never steal. Make sure to contact him and Rob early. They are very busy men handling many cases. Help yourself out by getting them everything quickly and properly. Be honest with them in every detail. I was relieved that they never asked me to do anything against my integrity and allowed me to always be truthful and honest. We proved my innocence and the Article 15 was dropped and no paperwork was given. It was a rough time but they were great in helping me through it!

Mr. Karns is worth every penny! I am a Soldier of 17 1/2 years, 4 deployments , drill SGT, Bronze Star, 2 MSM and a very successful warfighter. I was being recommended for an involuntary separation under ART 14-12c Commission of a Serious Offense (Fraternization, Obstruction of Justice, Dereliction o...f Duty , failure to Report a Sexual Assault and Intent to purchase or destribute an illegal or prescription drug). I am an MP and some of my Soldiers got in trouble, CID confiscated all their phones and discovered through all their text messages that all of the above charges might have occurred. In total, 9 of my MP soldiers were Involuntary Seprated with either General discharges or Other than Honorable using the military assigned legal counsel. My command team had recommended Separation with other than honorable conditions. I hired Mr Karns about 6 months ago to represent me and he rigorously worked on my case. I had my separation board yesterday and the Board members recommended that not only that I shouldn't be separated but they also recommended that another investigation be open to find out what went wrong and why I was charged Initially. The best decision I ever did was hire Mr Karns and his firm. They saved my career and thanks to him I will be able to retire from the military. Thank you!

Mr. Karns is one of the best lawyers out there. As soon as I made contact with Mr. Karns, he did absolutely everything he could to help me. I was in a situation that did not look favorable at all, but Mr. Karns put in the effort and hard work to turn my situation around. In the end, my case was succe...ssfully solved. Not only was he professional, patient, and informative, but he was also motivated to prove my innocence no matter how long it took. He did a fantastic job, I cannot complain.
