VERY DISAPPOINTED

We used this attorney for my step son who had received a speeding ticket and was involved in a mva that was his fault. He paid fines, took safety class and I was advised that there would be no insurance or license points. Unfortunately we had both and I didn't find out until we were up for auto insu...rance renewal and our insurance doubled in the monthly payment. I contacted his office several times after this and didn't receive any response. Which surprised me because before they were very diligent in speaking with me and guiding me through the process. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!

Traffic tickets resulting from a motor vehicle accidents are usually resolved with a complete dismissal of the violation providing there are no aggravating circumstances. A dismissal of the case results in no points being assessed against either the DMV record or the insurance. However, the insurance company may assess you points as the result of the driver of the other vehicle making a claim against your insurance policy. This depends on the specific terms of your policy. This is a separate issue from the traffic violation that in this case was dismissed completely in court. Unfortunately, this is a common misunderstanding in cases of this nature. We do try to inform our clients of this possibility during our consultations and we are always available to answer any questions afterwards.

Worry Free

I received a speeding ticket that would have been costly and point worthy. Kevin's introductory mail was clear, concise and had the information I needed to contact him. My first call to his office; Kevin answered his phone. I was impressed. I paid his asking fee and he took care of everything. N...o points; no worries.

Great job!

My 21 year old son got a speeding ticket going 82 in a 60. I got a letter in the mail from the Kennedy Law Firm and I decided to use them. They were very communicative and handled everything for me. I always knew exactly what was happening throughout the process. This ticket could have had a devastat...ing impact on my son's insurance premiums. Mr. Kennedy got the case dismissed for faulty equipment. If you get a ticket in or around Chapel Hill, I highly recommend the Kennedy Law Firm. Thank you Kevin!

Traffic Ticket

I received a ton of letters in the mail after I got a traffic ticket but selected this law firm because of the presentation. I called early in the morning and spoke directly to Kevin who was very thorough in obtaining and providing information. I did have a prior traffic offence and they were able to... have those charges waived. The fee was median compared to the other offers received but well worth it. Communication the on the resolution of my ticket was timely. Thanks!

Super Easy and Responsive!

My college-aged son got a speeding ticket (70mph in a 55mph zone) in NC while driving back from college. Shortly thereafter we were inundated with mail offering legal help for the ticket. We read through the letters and picked two lawyers to call. I had never seen this marketing tactic before and did...n't actually realize getting legal help was so easy. Kevin Kennedy's letter outlined the process extremely well and he responded super quickly to our call. (We have yet to hear back from the other lawyer/law firm.) He remained extremely responsive with each call AND he was able to reduce the sentence and keep points from his driving record which would increase our insurance payments. I highly recommend Kevin Kennedy.
