Excellent Lawyer

Bill is a great lawyer. He helped my husband and I with our suit. He was very professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. He knew everything about injury cases and the law. We will use him again if we need any legal advise. We highly recommend William Kendall.

My go-to lawyer

I have been working with Mr. Kendall since 2002. He has helped me with several cases, all of which ended in my favor. Mr. Kendall has never shown an inkling of incompetence or unprofessionalism. He is direct and incredibly knowledgeable, a no-holds-barred kind of guy. I am pleased to continue busines...s with him and have been recommending clients to him with every opportunity.

Slip and Fall

Subsequent to my initial consultation with Attorney William R. Kendall I concluded that he was an open, fair and competent professional who had the experience and knowledge that could and would ensure that I received just compensation for my injuries. Knowing the difficulty and uncertainty attached ...slip and fall cases I was quite apprehensive. Attorney Kendall reassured me that in spite of the difficulty involved that he would utilize his knowledge and professional experience in similar cases to obtain justifiable results for me. He was open to my concerns and accessible when I needed consultation and in the end, obtained results that were well above my expectations. As a retired Marine Corps Officer, disabled veteran, and college professor who has, in my lifetime, dealt with many attorney's. and as an individual who expects perfection in those I interact with, I can say without question, that Attorney William R. Kendall earned my respect and trust. I would recommend him highly to anyone seeking an competent attorney. On a scale from 1 to 10, I would rate him as a "10."

Excellent lawyer

Bill was very accommodating and worked with me to make sure I received all the correct treatment for my injury. I was very pleased with his knowledge of how and what needed to be done so that I would recover from the car accident I was involved in. He is a kind hearted and caring person which I thoug...ht was not going to be found in any lawyer.

"I have known William Kendall for over twenty five years. I worked with Mr. Kendall on personal injury claims as an adjuster for a major insurance company, as opposing defense counsel and when I was fortunate enough to act as co-counsel on numerous occasions. Mr. Kendall knows the law and is fiercely dedicated to his client's cause. Mr. Kendall is an accomplished trial attorney having taken dozens of personal injury cases to trial through verdict. Most importantly, Mr. Kendall is professional and he always exhibits the highest level of honesty and integrity. I strongly endorse Mr. Kendall in the area of personal injury law and I would not hesitate to refer potential clients to his office."
