Professional review for David Kerner Esq.

Mr Kerner was the attorney for by daughter who was a passenger in an auto accident. My daughter just started college and was facing many medical bills and medical treatments away from home. Mr Kerner went above and beyond in negotiating with the medical providers in lower their medical bills. He a...ssisted her in locating a medical provider located near her college so she could continue treatments away from home. Mr Kerner is professional, knowledgeable and a very sincere individual. My daughter and I are very happy with the outcome of her claim. I highly recommend Mr Kerner.
