An Experienced Advocate
Attorney John W. Kerns began his legal career as former felony public defender in Wichita, Kansas. Since then he has represented clients in more felony jury trials than many attorneys conduct in a lifetime. These cases have included challenging cases involving violent crimes, sex crimes, drug charges, and other felonies.
Mr. Kerns works hard at every stage of the legal process to protect the client's rights. Each client can expect close personal attention from John throughout the legal process. No case is turned over to a young, inexperienced associate fresh out of law school, and clients are not "handled" by legal assistants. You will work directly with John, an advocate who is dedicated to succeeding for you.
Our Commitment to You
The Kerns Law Office believes that every client deserves an experienced, knowledgeable, effective, and compassionate criminal defense attorney. We will leave no stone unturned when preparing your case.
