Joe McKenna is an incredible advocate for the injured. He cares and he fights for his clients. I was injured while working at a multi-billion dollar corporate employer. They had so many different offices and roadblocks that they put me though following a serious work injury. Joe helped to navigate and conquer them all. Thanks to Joe, I didn't give up and a significant financial settlement was negotiated.
Occasionally questions come up, Joe is always so very kind and helpful.
I'm so thankful I have Joe McKenna on my side.
I was introduced to Joe shortly after losing my husband in a tragic work accident. His compassion, support, and superb talents as an attorney are unparalleled. He helped guide me through the highly complex legal system, connect me with other professionals when needed, but always first ensured my well being. He further went above and beyond just being an attorney as he continues to be a sponsor at my late husband's annual memorial event. Joe is in a class of his own and he won't steer you wrong.
Joe was recommended through my local union…..he was outstanding in handling my industrial accident case. After my injury I was overwhelmed and unsure of my worker’s compensation rights. Joe not only helped me understand my options but also went above and beyond to ensure I received the best medical attention while he handled the legalities. Every phone call, email or text was answered or returned immediately. His dedication to my case resulted in a settlement that far exceeded my expectations. Joe is a highly recommended lawyer for anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer. It’s amazing to work with a lawyer that really cares about you!
