Susan Karpa
I am a Calgary based criminal defence lawyer who specializes in defending clients against criminal charges. When deciding on a lawyer to represent you in criminal matters, experience and results achieved are crucial considerations. The safety and health of my clients and staff are of utmost importance and my thoughts are with those who have been impacted.

The moment I met Susan Karpa, I knew I was in good hands. She was of great support, and she helped me understand the process from beginning to end. She offered an excellent billing rate, went to all my court dates, got me in contact with other services and was always quick to respond to my emails and calls.
Services
Tough, strategic, experienced. These are the attributes you want in the lawyer defending you - that is what you get when you hire me. Being charged with a criminal offence is often one of the lowest points in someone's life. It is an extremely stressful time and many people have no idea what to do.
Assaults and related offences such as uttering threats and harassment can occur in many different forms. They range from mere threats to forms of simple assault, domestic violence, assaults involving weapons, those that cause bodily harm, and most serious of all, aggravated assaults. If the act was intentional, an assault can be as minimal as a bump in the shoulder or pat on the back, or as serious as a stabbing.
If you have been charged with assaulting, threatening, or harassing someone - including situations involving domestic violence - I am here to help. I am experienced in defending these types of charges. I can help you to work towards avoiding a criminal conviction and minimize the negative personal impact of these kinds of allegations.
Being charged with sexual assault or any sexual offence can have a devastating impact on your life. The stigma, effect on employment opportunities, and jeopardy you are facing will be extremely stressful. In many cases, you will be charged with more than one sexual offence at once, which increases anxiety.
In the modern era of technology, the internet makes it easy to create and share images of all kinds, usually from the privacy of your own home. Due to this widespread availability, individuals can find themselves charged with child pornography-related offences - sometimes from a mere lack of awareness.

I would 10 out of 10 recommend Susan Karpa to anyone who asks me. I became aware of Ms Karpa's work through reading reviews on her and my gut told me she was the right person to call. Ms Karpa handled my matter with so much professionalism and diligence. Her office assistant was equally impressive at her job. They were both very swift in responding to my calls and emails. Ms Karpa took me through every stage of the court/trial process and organized regular meetings with me in preparation for the trial. She is very knowledgeable and she created the best defense for me.

Susan Karpa EXCEEDED my expectations. I had some serious charges against me and could have done hard time, but I contacted Susan and she took care of everything leaving me with great hope and peace of mind.. Not once did I have to show up, she handled everything beyond professionally. If you are in search of someone attentive, responsive, and to go above an beyond for you. Susan is the person. After a few months of waiting, All charges were dropped. I could not be happier with the results.
Thank you Susan.

I am very grateful to have had Susan represent me. She made a very stressful and scary situation alot easier to get through. She explained everything that was happening and what to expect as things proceeded and gave me some peace knowing she was in control. Always easy to contact and communicate with. Her assistant is also very helpful and easy to communicate with. I would recommend Susan to anyone I know needing legal help knowing they would be in good hands with her.

Words can’t describe how thankful I am for Susan’s help through my trying process. She’s professional, to the point and gets the job done. With her guidance, professional approach and the care she showed for my case, she secured an outcome that I didn’t think was possible. I will forever be in debt to Susan for her services and I highly recommended her for any situation you may find yourself in.
Thank you again for everything Susan, you’re the best!
