David Brian Kempston

The term "Counselor" best describes Attorney David Kempston's approach to service. Kempston regularly and carefully counseled me through the complicated Minnesota Workers Compensation system with confidence and caution. I felt comforted by his remarkable knowledge and stellar reputation but it was ...his patience and understanding that impressed me most. I did my research when I sought legal council. When I asked three different attorney's who they would pick as an attorney to represent them, they all recommended David Kempstom. His representation won me a remarkable out-of-court settlement and the comfort of knowing my future is secure thanks to this counselor extraordinaire .

Pick a lawyer with a stellar reputation, who has mastery in his practice, and stands for you: Mr. Kempston. I’m glad he was on my side! For a year and a half after a workers comp claim, I tried to work with the insurance company. They kept thwarting me, making excuses, making new reasons why they ...weren't paying me. I called the State and they intervened on my behalf several times. I wasn't asking for anything but to have my chiropractic bills paid for. I was being reasonable. But I was frustrated by my experience, their red tape, their avoidance of responsibility. Plus I found the injury worse than I thought, and it affected my ability to stand for long periods, which jeopardized my job options. I found a vocational rehab counselor to work with me. After reviewing my case, she let me know that, by law, I could get other compensation for workers’ comp rather than just chiropractic treatment. I had not known that. She referred me to DAVID KEMPSTON saying he was THE BEST WORKERS’ COMPENSATION LAWYER IN THE STATE and she liked working with him. When negotiating with insurance companies (or other lawyers), they look at your lawyer’s record of won/lost cases, trial results, and compensation awarded. They use that information to determine their strategy, their willingness to pay, what they offer, how they “play ball”. With Mr. Kempston’s stellar reputation, the whole game changed once I started working with him. Besides it being a relief that I didn’t have to talk with the insurance company any more — which was always frustrating in their merry-go-round dance of excuses — they responded quicker and much, much fairer because of Mr. Kempston. They then paid for medical visits for my knee and lower back, for testing, for finding out I had suffered some permanent damage from the incident. These issues have kept me from doing the same kind of job I did before the incident. THE UPSHOT IS I HAVE BEEN AWARDED A SUBSTANTIAL SETTLEMENT THAT I WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN BY MYSELF. Mr. Kempston negotiated on my behalf, asked for things I would never have thought to ask for — because I don’t know the law and wouldn’t have known to ask for them, and has protected me now and in the future. While I received the settlement, the case still is open in case of further knee and lower back issues, so he protected me for the future also. I found Mr. Kempston amazingly quick in responding to my emails or calls, having the ability to deal with all the details and keep track of them, having the guts and wherewithal to stand up to the other company, and to negotiate competently. While the process hasn’t been fun, it’s been easy for me once Mr. Kempston stepped in, and the results were amazingly fruitful for me. I’m glad he was on my side. I’m sure the insurance company now wished they’d just paid for the chiropractic bills they agreed to, then reneged on. It would’ve cost them much, much, much less money. PICK A LAWYER WITH A STELLAR REPUTATION, WHO HAS MASTERY IN HIS PRACTICE, AND STANDS FOR YOU: MR. KEMPSTON.

Mr. Kempston in my opinion earns the designation of Super Lawyer everyday. Evidently his peers feel the same way. I met with Mr. Kempston several years ago regarding my work comp case. He told me at that time that I didn't have a case and what to do and document until I did. Several years later I wen...t back to him when my injuries led to me no longer being able to work and I had a strong case. I have had many lawyers over the years for various purposes and have never had anyone that kept in such close contact with me. He answered all my questions by phone or e-mail same day and a lot of times if he wasn't helping someone else, within a few minutes. He takes the time to LISTEN and understand what you are going through and describes in great detail the processes that will happen along the way and is very companionate to helping you in any way that he can. My case was settled very satisfactory in my opinion and he continues to provide advise and support on other issues that have come up since then. He is very straight forward and has the integrity to tell you his opinion and what he feels will happen in your situation whether it be for or against you. I could not have asked for better representation in my work comp case and can only hope to find one as honest, caring, supportive with such strong morals if I ever need representation for any other matters in the future. You are getting the best of the best if you are considering having him represent you. Robert

I recently retained David Kempston for a Work Comp Claim, I would highly recommend him to anyone dealing with Work Comp issues. He was very prompt in returning any calls, texts, emails. Quite often I had an answer to a question within minutes via phone or email. David patiently and professionally wal...ked me through the intimidating Work Comp process. His expertise and advice made me feel at ease as I was able to contact him at anytime as issues arose with my employer and or the Work Comp insurance carrier. I genuinely felt that David was more concerned about my personal well being and making sure I was not on my own than he was with getting paid to represent me. As the insurance company's and employers have teams of legal experts to protect their interests I was overjoyed to find someone as compassionate as David to protect my interests and rights. I could not give him a higher recommendation, please don't hesitate to contact him early in the process and let him guide you!!
