Helped with Social Security disability

I hired Mr. Jenkins to hand my Social Security disability case, and he and his staff did a great job. I got my award fast, and the staff was helpful and knowledgeable every time I called. I strongly recommend the Frank Jenkins Law Office for any injury or disability-type case.

Satisfied injured employee

The staff at Frank Jenkins law office have done a great job for me. My employer and their insurance company were really making things difficult for me after my work injury. The day after my employer received notice that Mr. Jenkins was representing me, my employer changed his tune and started treatin...g me in a decent, even helpful manner.

Auto Accident

I hired Frank Jenkins on an injury claim from a motor vehicle crash. Everyone at Mr. Jenkin's office worked hard on my case, but the insurance company just would not pay what I thought was fair. As a result, Mr. Jenkins filed the lawsuit and fought for me right up to the Friday before my trial that w...as set to start that Monday. At that point, the attorney for the insurance company called and offered the amount of money I felt I deserved to settle my case. Mr. Jenkins and his staff went the extra mile for me, and I recommend them to other injured people who are in need of help.

"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."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
