James Kennedy- your friend, your neighbor, your attorney

James Kennedy is more than just an attorney, he actually cared about my case. His follow through was the best I’ve ever experienced. He was very professional, experience, punctual, but more importantly he got me results for my injuries. There is not a better personal injury attorney in the El Pa...so area!

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.
