Posted by MIKE KERNEA | June 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Land Use & Zoning

HONEST AND DOES WHAT HE SAYS HE WILL DO

I WAS HAVING A COUNTY ISSUE, AND IT WAS QUITE DIFFICULT TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY FROM THAT COUNTY . I HAD HEARD OF AN ATTORNEY IN CARTERSVILLE THAT WAS EXCELLENT WITH ZONING ISSUES. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND MR. JENKINS. MY WIFE AND I TRAVELED TO CARTERSVILLE FROM CHATTANOOGA AND WHEN WE ARRIVE...D MR. JENKINS AND HIS STAFF WERE VERY NICE AND HIS OFFICE WAS NOT A HOLE IN THE WALL. MR. JENKINS TOOK MY WIFE AND I UP STAIRS TO THE VERY NICE CONFERENCE ROOM. HE HAD ANOTHER ATTORNEY WITH HIM MAKING SURE THAT HE DID NOT MISS ANYTHING AND THEY BOTH WERE TAKING NOTES ON PAPER AND THEIR LAPTOP, AND NOT JUST LISTENING . ALL OF THIS HAPPENED BEFORE WE HAD RETAINED THE SERVICES OF THE LAW FIRM. MY WIFE HAD BEEN MAKING A NOTEBOOK OF ALL THE DETAILS OF THE CASE SO THIS HELPED TREMENDOUSLY. SO MAKE SURE AND TAKE NOTES ON YOUR CASE BEFORE YOU GO TO AN ATTORNEY. WITHIN TWO DAYS I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MR. JENKINS AND HE AND I WERE ON THE PHONE WITH THE PEOPLE THAT COULD MAKE THINGS HAPPEN IN MY CASE. MR. JENKINS HAD A MAPPED OUT PLAN OF WHAT COURSE OF ACTION WE WERE GOING TO TAKE AND STEP BY STEP WE ARE DOING JUST THAT. EACH WEEK I GET A DETAILED BILL OF WHAT MR. JENKINS HAS ACCOMPLISHED FOR MY WIFE AND I . SOME ATTORNEY THAT I HAVE HAD IN THE PAST WOULD SEND A BILL WITH A DOLLAR AMOUNT AND NO DETAIL AT ALL. JUST IS THE BILL . I HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY WITH MR. JENKINS, HE DOES CHARGE A LITTLE MORE THAN THE AVERAGE ATTORNEY, BUT HE HAS ALREADY SPENT THE TIME AND RESEARCH ON ZONING SO I AM NOT PAYING HIM FOR DOING THE RESEARCH ON MY DIME. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THIS, YES YOU MAY PAY AN ATTORNEY LESS MONEY PER HOUR , BUT IF THEY HAVE TO SPEND TIME RESEARCHING THE CASE LAW AND HISTORY THEN YOU HAVE SPENT WAY MORE MONEY THAN THE LAWYER THAT IS ONLY BILLING YOU FOR THE TIME DRAFTING THE DOCUMENTS FOR COURT NOT RESEARCH. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP MIKE

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Frank Jenkins and I have worked together on several cases over the past several years. During that time, I have come to know Frank as the exceptional and outstanding attorney that he is and as a very amenable personality. He carries with him a high level of well-earned respect in the legal community having successfully litigated numerous cases in varied areas of legal practice. In my associations with him, I have always found him to be at the top of the legal profession in competence, ethics, and commitment to excellence. He is the founding co-author of the Georgia Automobile Insurance Law digest and is extremely knowledgeable in this area. I am honored to whole-heartedly recommend him as legal counsel in any matter."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I did not know Frank Jenkins until he was retained by my client's insurance company to provide individual defense for my client to hundreds of tort claims arising from a most unusual set of facts. I was at first very impressed to learn that he is considered somewhat of an expert on insurance cases. Most notable, however, is the pleasant nature of this lawyer, and his professionalism in the way he interacts with co-counsel, opposing counsel and the court. I later recommended Frank to local groups in my community who were wanting to litigate a local government issue. They were extremely satisfied with his representation. I would highly recommend this lawyer for any civil issue, especially a complex tort or local government dispute. McP"

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
