Benjamin Lee Kessinger III

Committed to personally being involved and taking a “hands-on” approach to every case accepted. Over the last fourteen years, I have been personally involved in over 34 million dollars of personal injury verdicts or settlements. My experience includes litigation and trial representation with a concentration on cases involving complex personal injury, death and business litigation. When you become a client, I am available 24/7 to handle your legal needs. I personally handle your matter from start to finish — never handing it off to an associate.
