Review Richard Kettell

He was my lawyer for a case

Posted by

Mr. Kattell became my lawyer for me on my workmans Compensation case he represented me he was very thorough and new what my case was about he also spoke to me before my case I would definitely recommend him he also took my case because my lawyer was not able to speak thankyou

Great guy, friendly, very professional, knows his stuff.

I was assigned Mr.kettell when my attorney became unable to speak due to an illness. He represented me very well at my workmans comp hearing. Very particular and made sure he was very prepared for whatever the judge and the other side would possibly ask. Answered all my questions, and gave me pointers in which way I should continue with my case. Honestly wish I would of found him before the attorney that I have now. Thanks again!
Richard Kettell's response: I strive to be a partner with my client. A client who is informed about the process makes the attorney's job that much easier. I appreciate your kind words.
