Workers Comp Case

Mr. Kernbach was recommended for my family to use due to a Workers Comp case. With never having to use legal, Mr. Kernbach was very aggressive with handling the matter and was very confident in winning the case. Even with the delays that were encountered, he didn't give up the case. Matters were h...andled and the case was won in favor of the family. Would highly recommend the Office of Michael A. Kernbach. Not only was he helpful but his staff were very professional and helpful if Mike wasn't available at the time of my calls.

Excellent Choice for Workers Comp and Personal Injury

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.

Excellent representation for WC injuries.

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].

100% of WINs for our First Responders.

Excellent Lawyer with decades of experience and dozens of wins. I hired him back in the 1990's to fight for my Job Related Hypertension. One of the first cases in Virginia. He won it easily. I have referred him to several dozen Virginia First Responders and he won them all. Our Fire Fighters, Parame...dics and 911 Dispatchers appreciate him greatly. I would HIGHLY recommend him.

Not recommended

After hiring this attorney for a workers compensation matter Kernbach failed me greatly in my case. Communication was terrible. He is not an aggressive attorney, when I needed help and things got tough he treated my case like a side job. In short, he did a half job. I strongly recommend that reader...s of this review do not hire this attorney.
