Amazing experience

I recently had the pleasure of working with Attorney Rod for a speeding ticket case, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Rod was incredibly professional, friendly, and polite throughout the entire process. He ensured I was kept up-to-date with the results promptly, providing excellent communica...tion and transparency. Rod’s expertise and dedication were evident as he navigated the legal proceedings with ease, ultimately achieving a favorable outcome. His approachable demeanor and genuine concern for his clients make him stand out in his field. If you need an attorney who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares about his clients, look no further than Rod. He is the best, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Traffic Citation Dismissed

I hired Rod Kernan to dispute my careless driving traffic citation. He was very professional and great to work with. He got my citation dismissed in court. Excellent service. I highly recommend him!

Criminal Traffic

Hired Attorney Kernan after my juvenile son received a criminal traffic ticket, over 30! Although my son did wrong, I was worried he would go to jail, or have a criminal record at such a young age. I hired Attorney Kernan and put my faith as trust in him! He was quick, attentive and resolved the ca...se prior to the set court date. My son did not have to go to court. And, the best part, no jail and no points! My son was lucky to have such excellent representation and I couldn’t have asked for anyone else to trust with my sons future!!

Confident, knowledgeable,would definitely hire again

Mr Kernan is a good example of the attorney you wish you would have called first. He is the man that gets results without the static. I Had a serious traffic violation that carried 4 points that would have destroyed my clean class A CDL for at least four years. Would have disqualified me for the loca...l job I currently enjoy. A dismissal like it never happened was more than I thought was possible. Thank you again Mr. Kernan. With out a doubt this lawyer knows how to get the results you wish for......

Traffic Citation

I received a traffic citation in February and Attorney Kernan was able to work out a great deal with the officer to reduce the severity of my ticket. I appreciate his assistance and would recommend him for anyone in a similar predicament.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Rod is a great attorney, and a great guy. He and his wife (Shara) are excellent criminal defense lawyers. It's hard to believe that Rod and I worked for Joe DuRocher's office together probably 10(?) years ago, and now we still work together on numerous criminal cases. Rod comes with my highest recommendation. I will continue to work with Rod on cases as long as he'll have me!"
