The San Diego County Criminal Defense Bar Association has once again recognized Kerry L. Armstrong as its 2026 Trial Lawyer of the Year—a distinction that reflects not only courtroom success, but a steadfast commitment to justice.
Each day, criminal defense attorneys step into courtrooms to protect the rights of individuals facing life-altering consequences. This award honors those who go further—who take on complex, high-stakes cases, challenge the evidence, and ensure that justice is proven, not presumed. Kerry L. Armstrong continues to exemplify that standard.
With more than 25 years of experience and over 100 jury trials, Kerry has built a reputation for strategic advocacy, disciplined preparation, and unwavering dedication to his clients. Over the past year alone, he has handled a series of demanding cases, securing multiple full acquittals, a dismissal following retrial, and not guilty verdicts in a high-profile federal prosecution.
His approach is deliberate and thorough—leveraging precise litigation strategy and effective cross-examination to uncover weaknesses in the prosecution’s case. These outcomes are not incidental; they are the result of deep experience and a consistent focus on protecting his clients at every stage.
A certified Criminal Law Specialist and prior recipient of this honor, Kerry’s continued recognition underscores the respect he has earned among his peers and within the legal community.
This award is more than a milestone—it’s a reflection of the role he plays every day: standing in the gap for his clients when it matters most.
