Came to my rescue... We're truly grateful

Mr. Penney had worked on a previous case for my boyfriend in regards to a felony Dui. He was able to get a plea of probation which was great. Unfortunately boyfriend missed a court hearing and the judge issued a warrant. When he finally got arrested for the failure to appear I contacted Mr. Penney at... the last minute and he responded and acted quickly on my boyfriends behalf

Best Lawyer for a Concerned Dad

Derrick Penney helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. My daughter got involved with a pretty bad guy. All of us ended up having an altercation in my home. Things got rough, and I got hurt. We ended up in jail ultimately. Although I have a somewhat checkered history myself, I ha...ve overcome adversity in my life, Mr. Penney was able to look past that and saw that at the end of the day, I was just a concerned dad. He did everything he could to work with the prosecutor to get the best possible outcome for me with no permanent consequences. In my experience he is hands down the best defense lawyer I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.
