Mr. Hesser listened patiently as I struggled to speak after a basal ganglia embolic stroke and was astoundingly dialed into a huge amount of information . He gave clear,ethical,comprehensive counsel which enabled me to make informed decisions.
He heard me and helped me find my voice.
I have handled EEOC, FCHR, State, Federal and Administrative Claims at all levels. I handle sex, race, color, age, pregnancy, and all other types of workplace discrimination matters throughout the state of Florida. I also offer employer services for companies looking to protect against workplace claims.
I represent primarily claimants (injured workers) in workers' compensation claims, throughout the state of Florida. I have handled more the 25 Final Hearings.

Ken was born in Philadelphia, PA, in 1975.

I typically don’t have a positive view of attorneys, BUT Mr Hesser is a rare gem
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to a family member. He’s experienced, professional, courteous and explains everything clearly.

The Best Attorney!!
Ken Hesser is the best attorney!!! He helped my husband and I get through filing bankruptcy with ease. He helped us fix a stressful situation, that made our lives better. We were able to buy a brand new house 24 months after filing bankruptcy. He is kind, attentive and compassionate. Do yourself a favor and hire him, you won’t regret it.
