Franks Gerkin McKenna, the law firm he started, is actually located on that same farmland where Herb used to milk cows.Herb began his law career in 1961, and was a partner in a law firm in Rockford, Illinois. He won the first million dollar jury verdict in McHenry County. After winning this case and others, he opened his first office in Marengo. His legacy in McHenry County is distinguished and undeniable. He was the only president of the Illinois State Bar Association to come out of McHenry County.His favorite part of being an attorney is helping people that really need help. He is honored when people pick him to be their attorney. He passionately fights for the underdog and focuses on the needs of the client.He is a prodigious reader. Herb is also an avid fisherman. He has even found success on the Professional Walleye Trail.
