Mr. Kennett is a very strong negotiator and was able to settle our case even in the midst of an array of challenges. He advises you with honesty and is always ready to try his best to address any concerns you have. Thank you to Mr. Kennett and his staff!
Ted personifies what advocacy stands for in the legal system. He stood up for me and my family when I could not stand up for myself. He gently lead us through a process where he interacted with the insurance companies, instead of our needing to do this. I was able to focus on my extensive recovery. Ted was able to negotiate for the maximum benefits that the insurance policies had to offer and for this we are grateful. We were greatly helped by Ted's efforts and would recommend him to anyone needing injury law assistance. Jeff
I contacted Attorney Kennett a few years ago to settle a personal injury claim which was the result of an automobile accident. The insurance company, mine, was treating me as though I was completely incompetent and would simply yield to their demands. As soon as I contacted Kennett, we met, discussed my situation, and he began to immediately seek a satisfactory solution. Soon, we settled for much more than the insurance company's repeated offers to me. I highly recommend Attorney Kennett and will, without hesitation, contact and contract him again, should the need arise.
Ted is an exceptional and compassionate person. I was referred to Ted by my personal lawyer because of his experience in injury law. I hated going through my lawsuit, but Ted made it as easy as possible for me. He was always sensitive to the pain I and my family were going through, and provided comfort throughout the process. I never felt Ted was interested in the amount of the settlement, simply concerned in helping in getting a gentle closure. I will always think of Ted as a friend
Mr Kennett represented me after a serious motorcycle accident. He listened well, explained the ramifications and helped me understand what and who I was dealing with. He completely handled every area of my case, taking it all off of my shoulders, which was so important after a head injury. Excellent work!
