About Dwayne
Dwayne Pennant came to law after a sizable gap between degrees. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Massachusetts Boston in 2005 and returned to formal legal study nearly a decade later, receiving his J.D. from Charlotte School of Law in 2014. That sequence shapes a career built on deliberate moves rather than a single straight line.
He is admitted to practice in Massachusetts and North Carolina. Those admissions allow him to represent clients on matters that cross state lines and to appear in courts in both jurisdictions. He maintains ties to both legal communities and has worked to sustain a practice that serves clients in each state.
Pennant serves as a lawyer at Pennant Law Offices, PLLC. His role at the firm centers on client representation and courtroom work. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic in preparation and steady once cases move into litigation. He handles filings, motions and courtroom appearances, balancing the paperwork side of matters with oral advocacy where needed.
Outside the firm, he became a member of the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Lawyers in 2022 and remains a member. That association places him among attorneys who attend events, continuing education and peer exchanges focused on trial skills and state court practice. His participation there provides ongoing contacts and resources relevant to litigation in Massachusetts.
Throughout his career he has combined courtroom exposure with the administrative obligations of running a smaller practice. That mix requires attention to deadlines, client communication and the procedural rules that govern litigation in state courts. He has built a practice environment that emphasizes responsiveness and hands-on case handling by attorneys rather than extensive delegation.
He maintains his office under the Pennant Law Offices, PLLC name and meets with clients there. His work spans matters arising in both Massachusetts and North Carolina and involves representation at various stages of dispute resolution. He currently practices at Pennant Law Offices, PLLC, handling legal matters in Massachusetts and North Carolina.
