Her tenacity and skill have culminated in acquittals of convictions. See notable results.
Karen A. Connolly has not only obtained not guilty verdicts in jury trials, and reversals, her advocacy has saved lives.
A conviction can be appealed to either the Nevada Supreme Court or the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals for federal offenses. If those avenues do not bring relief, a writ to the United States Supreme Court may be pursued in limited circumstances. If you feel you were denied effective assistance of counsel, a post-conviction writ of habeas corpus can be filed. If that fails, the denial can be appealed. If all state remedies have been exhausted without success, relief can be sought in federal court.

Karen helped me with my case, and it was not easy, nor was it pleasant in any way. She is an extremely skilled and experienced lawyer, and I couldn’t be happier with the tenacity with which she defended me. I have seen some of the reviews that are negative for her, and can only guess that those were people on the other side of her cases? If you want to win, she’s the choice, and I am sure glad I was referred to her by my brother-in-law!

I am so glad I made the decision to fire my previous attorney and enlist the representation of Karen. I am confident in stating without her by my side, I would not have fully be capable of protecting my family and standing up for what was true and fair. I definitely recommend Ms. Connolly and would hire her again if the need ever arises.
