I have successfully handled cases throughout Central Florida, including Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Polk, Manatee, and Sarasota Counties and I know both sides of the conflict. After graduating from law school with honors from Mercer University in 1993, my first job was with a firm that handled lawsuits on behalf of insurers. I was mentored in and taught the strategies and tactics of the defense. As I gained that experience, I came to realize that I was on the wrong side of the struggle. I made the most rewarding move of my career when I joined the Plaintiff’s bar and began helping victims in their fight to recover from their losses. While I have never looked back, I believe that the knowledge I gained representing my now adversary, gives me valuable insight and perspective in overcoming the obstacles and roadblocks the insurance lawyers raise. If you hire me I will bring that knowledge and experience to bear in your case. I promise to handle your case professionally and work diligently to obtain the justice you deserve.

The Kennedy Law Group was founded on the concept of providing prompt, aggressive representation to our clients. Our attorneys and staff are dedicated to providing the highest quality legal services available. We urge you to ask around. We think you will be convinced that we are the lawyers for you. Many times people do not seek the guidance of an attorney for fear that doing so would be too expensive and complicated. The Kennedy Law Group alleviates those fears right away. Your first consultation is always FREE. During that first meeting, you will find out whether your problem requires the assistance of an attorney and what we can do to help. Fees and costs are discussed upfront. In personal injury cases, fees are based on a contingency basis. You pay no fee unless we win your case. The fee is paid at a percentage of the money you recover. In certain circumstances, we may determine that your legal needs would be better served by referring your case to one of our co-counsel law firms. This would only be done after consultation with you. Of course, we would only refer your case if we are completely confident that such referral is absolutely in your best interest. The co-counsel referral would be done without you incurring any additional attorney fees or costs. Finally, we never represent insurance companies; only individuals like you. Therefore, we don't hold back when going after an insurance company for fear of them cutting off their business from us.
