Michael A. Kernbach

I used Mr. Kernbach for my workers compensation several years ago and was very pleased with his advice as well as his results. He has also functioned as the attorney for our union for decades and has had unparalleled success for our members. Highly recommended. There are few attorneys with such a gra...sp on Virginia Workers compensation as it relates to public safety as Mr. Kernbach.

Mike Kernbach has been assisting me with my claim after being denied by Worker's Highly Recommend Comp. Mike and his staff have helped me with all the paperwork dealing with my case and has always returned my phone calls in a timely manner. I would highly recommend his services as he understands the ...careers and hazards associated with First Responders.

Early in my Va. State Police career, I injured a knee during a scuba assignment. Torn meniscus. Surgery required so I was placed on WC leave. I had difficulty with VSP administration regarding the WC compensation. Mr. Kernbach assisted in correction of the difficulties I encountered. Subsequently, I... injured that same knee again on another dive while lifting a drowned victim out of the water. Another surgery required. During an undercover assignment I sustained a knee injury to the other knee which also required surgery. Over time, the knee with two injuries worsened and subsequently, I retired on a service incurred injury. Initially, the WC board denied my petition for retirement so a hearing before a WC officer, a representative of the AG's office. Mr. Kernbach appeared with me at the hearing at the WC office. As a result of Mr. Kernbach's assistance, my claim was granted and I retired with a service incurred (3) injury. I highly recommend Mr. Kernbach for anyone employed in a hazardous like of work should they have an injury on the job. Feel free to contact me at [email protected].
