Jeff Kendall is an amazing lawyer (usually a tough thing to say about lawyers - but it's true). As former prosecutors themselves he and his firm DiBenedetto and Kendall are the best-of-best. They are honest, kind and VERY well connected in the legal world. If your issue is personal injury related, DUI or other criminal law...you will be in great hands with this legal team. They aren't at all salesmen...they are just great lawyers...so they don't have to sell themselves.

Well connected attorneys that get things done. Knowledgeable and well connected in their community and industry. Mr. DiBenedetto is always a pleasure to see. After finding Mr. DiBenedetto from a referral, I would refer others to him myself. He does great work and I will continue to look to him as my first choice when in the need of legal services.
