About

Jesse is graduate of John Marshall Law School, and completed his undergraduate study at Georgia College and State University, where he majored in Political Science and Philosophy.   A native to the State of Goergia, Jesse was a stand out athelete and excelled in baseball.  During the summers, Jesse was routinely traveling with various summer baseball programs.  While he originally went to college on a full baseball scholarship, Jesse hung up his cleats after a college internship with the Baldwin County District Attorney's office exposed him to the law and the thrill of trial. It was during one particular case in his internship that Jesse confirmed his decision to pursue a legal career.  The case involved a fist fight outside a bar near Lake Sinclair.  A man trying to protect his family from an agressive, drunken attacker punched the attacker one time in the head.  The man fell dead.  At trial the defense offered little evidence and pieced together one feeble argument after another, only confusing the jury.  The Defendant was sentenced to 8 years in prison.  He was a hard worker and a new father. From this Jesse discovered that not all attorneys are created equal, and zealous advocacy in any case - for any client - is often the last divider between the client and disaster.  Because of this experience, Jesse has devoted his practice to ensuring that each client receives individual attention and thorough preparation. Jesse's studies have taken him around the world.  In 2007, he studied at the prestigous Sydney University School of Law in Sydney, Australia.  While in country, Jesse also worked with a local solicitor's (in Australia, all attorney's are called solicitors, not just prosecutors) office and experienced trials on issues from injury to criminal defense -- all the way on the other side of the world. In his spare time, Jesse travels with his wife and enjoys being with his family.  An avid outdoorsman, Jesse likes to hunt, fish, target shoot, kayak, horseback, and off-road.

Originally, I was going to represent myself in my small claims case but after the defendant hired a lawyer, I knew I needed help. After searching for a while, I finally found Jesse. The moment I spoke to him, I knew he was the attorney for me. Jesse is a very intelligent person and he is a very fast thinker (a skill that is very valuable in court). He took the time to understand my construction case and set me at ease that I did have a case. Jesse knows construction law and he was amazing in court often catching out the lies of the defendant. He took the time to prep me before the case and let me know how things would proceed. Jesse really presented my case well and his intelligence and speed of thought really made a big difference in court. Jesse did an amazing job and I couldn't be more pleased. I can't recommend him enough. We are awaiting the verdict.

I worked with my attorney Jesse on a case due to negligence in a car accident and with his help we closed with satisfaction. Thank you for your help Jesse.

I hired The KEnt Law Group to represent me in a personal injury case. It was not going well on my own so I had to get a lawyer. Mr. Kent told me everything I needed to know straight up and answered all of my questions. He was availible to ansswer my quesitons and put my mind at ease. When the insurance company wouldn't pay what he thought was fare he file a lawsuit for me. After a lot of grief from the insurance company Mr. Kent didn't back down and insisted that we go to trile. Finally the insurance company made a fair offer and I got what I was owed. I have already recommended Mr. Kent to a lot of my friends because he is a really great person and a great lawyer. You should defintely give him a call if you need a fair lawyer.

Attorney Kent kept me with a great state of mind amidst worry and led me through the process. He ensured me that all will be well and he lives up to what he says. I recommend attorney Kent for any situation. Thanks!

Jesse was very easy to get a hold of, knew exactly what he need to do. Got all my medical treatments taken care of immediately. Would never use anyone else after such a easy experience with him.

Jesse Kent is an amazing lawyer. I fell at a major "coffee" shop. Trust me it wasn't my fault. I'm elderly, I watch where I walk, I take my time. I have 2 titanium knees and 20 grand kids, but I know how to walk and watch out for myself. I had started with another lawyer that I just wasn't pleased with. When I hired Jesse he was very direct and very forthright. He was VERY COMPASSIONATE to my case. Any time I needed anything I would call and talk with him directly or a member of his staff and they always kept me up to speed. My injuries were horrible. The rug at the entrance of the store was saturated with water and kicked up on one corner. When I came in, it caught my foot and down I went. Mr. Kent got the security video of my fall and it definitely showed what happened. I was knocked out immediately. I needed several surgeries but had little money and no insurance, period. He filed suit and walked me all the way to a $100,000 resolution. Now I can pay for the surgeries I need and other things as they come up. A lot of lawyers refused to take my case, but Jesse didn't hesitate. I'm so happy I met him. Thanks so much Jesse - I'll be sending you everyone I know who needs a lawyer. You were a life-saver!!

Great attorney, who gives great advice! He represented me in a landlord/tenant case where I was the landlord and I am extremely happy with the result of my case, the process and everything else about my case! He also recognizes veterans and our hard work when setting his fee for a case!!! This was greatly appreciated. He is also just a really nice and kind man with a pleasant personality. I would hire him again without a second thought and I would recommend him to anyone that needs his help. Thank you Attorney Kent for all of your hard work and for a BIG WIN! :)... I wish you many blessings! Take care.

I really appreciated Jesse from the get-go. He spoke with me directly, allowed his personal phone to be accessible. Very professional, informative, and earnest in getting the situation resolved in my favor. My case: I was involved in a car accident as a passenger with two other vehicles involved. The main insurer of the car at fault was fighting against full "at-fault" responsibility the whole process, up until Jesse became involved. His honesty became apparent, and kept my frustrations at ease by informing me of the process and how long it would take to settle realistically. He fought hard, and was able to significantly lower my medical bills (by half!), and increased my settlement with the claims adjusters more than what was originally quoted. Patience does pay off people!! Overall, I'm very happy with how he handled the case, his professionalism/demeanor when speaking with me (I'm a little naive when it comes to legal jargon, due process, etc.). After having this experience with Jesse, I know how to approach these types of situations now, what questions to ask, and what to expect during the process. I can't thank you enough Jesse!!

Mr. Kent represented me as my victim advocate in a case against my fiancé. The ultimate goal was to get the charges against my fiancé dismissed. The case against my fiancé was from an argument that was blown out of proportion by law enforcement. Mr. Kent was compassionate with our situation, but aggressive in pursuing resolution so that my fiancé and I could continue our lives. Mr. Kent's strategy and technique were successful in getting the charges dismissed against my fiancé. Mr. Kent is ambitious, experienced, sharp, and he will be my lifelong attorney. He is the kind of attorney you want on your side. Having someone with his kind of talent working for you truly takes the pressure and stress away when facing legal trouble. I recommend Mr. Kent to anyone who seeks resolution and a favorable outcome to any legal issue you may have.

Jesse is a fantastic lawyer. He is ambitious and eager. He worked really hard for me and my family when I was facing a criminal charge. He wouldn't let me just give up on my case and enter a guilty plea. He made sure I knew what my options were. I'll admit none of them were good. I wanted my day in court but couldn't keep paying fees. Jesse agreed to try my case for me and let me figure out payment later. I thought that was a real nice thing to do. He could have sent me pakcing since I couldn't pay but he stood up for me. We tried my case and won and I couldn't be happyer. Jesse is an amazing lawyer and it is real good at what he does. I highly recommend him.
