Pit Bull Attack

I was severely attacked by a pit bull and it badly injured my leg. I went to the hospital to get it fixed and then after I came home, it got infected and bust apart. I ended up having to have multiple surgeries to fix it. It has been a real ordeal, but I am so glad that I called the Frank Jenkins Law... Office to handle my claim against the owner of that dog. Frank Jenkins and his staff worked hard for me, and got me a very large settlement for my injuries in a relatively quick manner. I was amazed with the results, and would recommend them to anybody with a serious injury.

Fought the Insurance company

The insurance company for the person who crashed into me did not want to take responsibility for the injuries I had in my car wreck. I hired Frank, and he fought the insurance company until they agreed to settle for a fair amount. I will send my friends to Frank Jenkins Law Office when they need a la...wyer.

Injured Worker

They took all my calls, answered any question I had, and kept me up-to-date on my case progress. The staff was quick to help, and kept me at ease. Frank fought for me from start to finish and didn't make me feel like a "number". Frank and his staff turned a negative point in my life into a positive o...ne.

Car wreck victim

After my car wreck, I was told by other attorneys that with my insurance situation and huge medical bills, that I may not get any compensation for my injuries. But Frank took my case, and he was able to negotiate my medical bills down and get me a large settlement as compensation. He took care of me,... and I highly recommend his firm.

Auto wreck

When I was injured in a car wreck, I wasn't sure if I would get any compensation because of past injuries. But Frank and his law team took my case and got me a settlement for my injuries that I believe was fair. They got it done faster than I thought it would take, and I was able to move past the ac...cident.

"I endorse this lawyer. For the past few years, Frank and I have belonged to the same Attorney group and I’ve been to a number of lawyer seminars with him that involved multi-day round table meetings to help better serve our clients. Frank is very considerate and generous with his time and knowledge. We’ve spend many hours in the past year on teleconferences helping with each other’s practice. He takes time to educate and looks after the big picture and long term goals in a way that is refreshing and very much appreciated. He's taken time to consult with me and I was left with a clear understanding that he put my interests above all while making sure we do the right thing. It's my pleasure to know and recommend Frank Jenkins III."
