Karin Riley Porter Criminal Defense Attorney

Phenomenal experience! A true professional who gets it done. Can't thank her enough.

Karin Porter represented me when I had been cited for reckless driving after failing to stop for a traffic signal. The incident occurred late at night after I had become lost while trying to get to my hotel following a late air arrival. I really thought she was a good attorney. Since I was visiting from out of state, she arranged to appear in court for me and she persuaded the judge to change my offense to failure to stop vice reckless driving. Throughout the process she was very responsive, empathetic and extremely professional. I'm very pleased to have engaged her to represent me

I have known Karin (and her husband) many years through sailing when they were still engaged. Karin has always been kind, thoughtful and generous to everyone around her. She had helped me to prepare a new 30 years old boat in the boat yard. The Porters helped me bringing the boat back to home port successfully after a 150 miles challenging journey and then captured a major regatta trophy the week after. Since then we have captured many trophies in many regattas. Over the years, I have the privilege of seeing them advance in nautical knowledge, enjoyed the sport of sailing and most of all as trusted friends on and off the water. Such as the time when I was clueless on how I may have to deal with receiving inheritance from another country, Karin arranged me met with one of her professional friend knowledgeable in that area for legal advice; or when I asked her for character reference during annulment process and later she was generous enough to be part of my wedding; or that time when the OPM clearance investigator asked me to give them some references of whom I have known, her name is among a few friends that pops up without thinking twice after a whole day of background investigation interview. While I am very happy that I have no needs of the professional services this far and I don’t intended to in future, many projects we worked on together and being sailing mates does gave me a very good idea on her professionalism and work ethics. You know it when someone who paid attention to details with precision and able to handle difficult situations in ease with a cool head, confidence and knowledge. As I told many of my competitors on the water, I am tremendously blessed with skillful and easygoing crew... And Karin, you have made my job skippering a racing sailboat easy on and off the water, of which, my wife and I are grateful that we have an awesome mate and friends like Karin.
