About The Firm
Michael J. McKenna founded the firm, just two years after his admission to the New Jersey and Pennsylvania bars in 1981. He had in mind a different approach to practicing law- one that emphasized the quality of work and the value of relationships as keys to a successful practice.
Forty years later, the firm is a highly regarded advocate of personal injury clients. Michael C. McKenna joined the firm while still in law school, and later as an associate upon admission to the bar in New Jersey and Pennsylvania in 2013. Father and son are recognized by the defense bar and insurance companies as a fearsome one two punch as champions on behalf of their clients.
A sense of family is an important part of the McKenna Law model. We are in fact a family, with a staff who think and act as a family, and together we come to think of our clients as part of our extended family who come to us in times of need.
