About Kenneth
Biography
I've been practicing law in Durham, NC for 31 years now. I focus on traffic cases, personal injury and workers compensation. I graduated from Wake Forest University in 1980 with a BA in political science. I went to Mercer University for law school, graduating in 1983. I began practicing in Durham the next year, and I have been here ever since.
Initially, I did just about any kind of case that came in the door. However, it's hard to get good at any area if you're trying to do them all. So, I settled on personal injury, workers compensation and traffic cases.
I am married and have two sons (ages 20 and 16). My wife is a physical therapist. My older son is a college sophomore and my younger is a high school sophomore. We also have three pets -- a Havanese dog named Blitzen, a tabby calico cat named Donner, and a black cat named Olive. (I'll let you figure out those names. . . )
I hope to hear from you

Awesome Attorney in North Carolina
Mr. Duke was professional and efficient in handling my speeding/traffic court case seeing that I was out of state, he represented me. I could not have won my case if I had went to court on my own.
