I felt like I met a friend

Went through two other Divorce lawyers and didn’t make any progress. While my wife and her lawyers made progress. A friend of mine recommended I try Renee, she was great, and I started to make progress. Renee really wants her clients to be prepared she expects all T’s and I’s to be crossed and dotted.... In the end I was very satisfied with the outcome. I would highly recommend her to someone else as long as you’re willing to do your part.

divorce

My divorce was the hardest time in my life. I had no idea what I was doing or where even to start, but Renee was with me every step of the way. I don't think that I could have made it without her constant guidance and support. My ex-husband and I were not right for each other and now have now are eac...h living the lives that we were meant to. None of this could have been possible without Renee's help. Before we even began, Renee asked me what I wanted. I had expected to encounter someone agressive, nonchalant, or who just saw the scariest time of my life as a payday. Renee, however, listened fully and with compassion - it was nothing like what I had expected from a lawyer. She did not judge, and always, always, always, ALWAYS answered the phone. I cannot stress how important this was to me. It seems like such a simple thing, but anytime that I had a question or concern she was right there on the other side of the phone to help. I have had a few friends tell me that they are looking for a lawyer and I always tell them THAT first. It made a world of difference to me. I really felt like I was going through this emotional time with a partner. I don't want to go into detail, but when I was at my lowest I knew she was there. I have had friends go through divorce and their lawyers abandon them halfway through, leaving them to find new help. It was a fear of mine, but Renee perservered. My divorce felt like it went on forever...honestly, it still feels like a fight some of the time - but Renee is always there. I don't think that I could have found anybody better to represent me. She stayed true to what I wanted. I don't know what else I can say except - if you need a lawyer, hire Renee. You won't regret it.

Great Personal Injury Lawyer

Whoever thought that what began when she answered her own phone would end up with such fantastic results 9 months later… but this is exactly what happened from when we first spoke with Renee Kennedy. We want to express our gratitude to Renee for an amazing job in representing my husband and me in two... very serious personal injury cases. Her knowledge and determination were unwavering and boy did she deliver results. We are EXTREMELY HAPPY with our settlement! Thank you Renee for being there for us. You were exactly what we needed during the stressful time we went through after the accident. You were always precise, detail-oriented, clever, pushing the insurance companies to the absolute max, and responsive to our questions and needs almost always answering the phone yourself immediately. Whoever hires Renee for personal injury cases can literally take this recommendation to the bank!

Angel

On the first meeting, I was really amazed how she treated me. I felt like she’s been my long known friend, like her own family. She tells you what you need to prepare and you better listen because it will help you as you go along with the process of your case. I followed her advice to a T and she got... me everything. She is an angel and I couldn’t have asked for more. Since I met her, I have peaceful mind and my nervousness was gone compared to my first attorney.

Definitely hire Ms. Kennedy!

Definitely hire Ms. Kennedy! The Judge said in front of the entire courtroom that she had never seen anyone else get such a good plea deal from the State for the type of charge against me—that was a first. The Judge said in front of everyone that Ms. Kennedy did a GREAT job for me and, needless to sa...y, I’m overjoyed with the result that Ms. Kennedy was able to achieve through her hard work, knowledge of the law, and commitment to my case. She was extremely aggressive with getting the Asst. Dist. Attorney to reduce the charges, and would not take “No” for an answer. The Judge was literally shocked how good a deal I got and said so during the hearing. Although Ms. Kennedy did an outstanding job, I have crossed criminal charges off of my bucket list and don’t plan on ever getting in trouble with the law again. I hear she does family law and personal injury so maybe I will need her again for that instead. lol
