I was in a very severe motorcycle accident in September of 2017. I was in the hospital for a long period of time. I went online and googled injury attorneys... read more and the hennigsen firm popped up. I called and Todd was at the hospital within an few hours. He sat down explained everything to me to make sure I understood what we needed to do and the direction to take things. I am very pleased with their services. They always called me back and if I had a question they got back with me as soon as possible. They are truly great people and will take GREAT care of you. Carmen was great as well. She was always on top of things and got back with me promptly. I couldn’t have asked for better people to help me through such a difficult time in my life. If you are in need of any kind of legal support that they specialize in i highly recommend them. They are VERY trustworthy people and always look out for your best interest. I will continue to recommend them to anyone and everyone!

I was in a car accident and originally had representation from another law firm ( one of those famous tv firms who shall not be named) I was sooo dissatisfied... read more from the beginning. I then researched another firm for representation and I came across Henningsen. From the start they took care of everything for me, they maintain constant communication with me through out the whole process keeping me informed. They gave me expectation during our initial interaction and by the end of it all the service they provided exceeded those expectations. I highly recommend this law firm. Thank you Henningsen but specifically the case manager Tamera smith.

My Son was hit by at truck while attending college. Fortunately he was not critically injured, but he suffered physical and emotional trauma. Todd Henningsen took on our case and... read more was able to get a settlement that fairly compensated my son, not only the medical bills, but for the entire traumatic experience. Todd and his staff, particularly Carmen, patiently guided us through the entire process and we felt we were in good and capable hands from the beginning. If you are looking for an injury attorney, it's because someone you love has been injured or perhaps worse. This is when you need to feel the utmost confidence in the people that are representing you, taking the stress out of an already difficult time. I highly recommend Henningsen Injury Attorneys, PC .

I was involved in an accident that wasn't my fault, I really didn't have a clue what to do next. The day after I was released from the hospital I... read more was very down because I was hurt, out of work and scared. My wife and I were watching TV, and good day channel 5 featured Mr. Todd Henningsen, injury attorney and he was actually giving advice for FREE....We took that as a sign, and called. From the moment I walked through his door, I was treated with kindness, respect,and EVERYTHING with my case was taken care of by Mr Henningsen and his paralegal Carmen, all I had to do was follow their instructions. I was very impressed with their service from start to end. I will recommend them to EVERYONE I know. Thanks so much, and I wish you both much success

I am so blessed to have found Henningsen Injury Attorneys! EXCELLENT and efficient representation! They assisted me in a car accident injury claim. Before finding them I was... read more using another attorney whose office had poor customer service and lacked professionalism and integrity. Due to this unacceptable behavior, I sought out another attorney and came across Henningsen and decided to give them a ring. Not only were Mr. Henningsen’s contingency fees more affordable than the first attorney, but every single staff member was extremely professional and compassionate – this was evident from my initial phone inquiry with their office when I spoke with Carmen. She talked to me for over 30 minutes and made sure to answer all questions to my satisfaction and even answered questions I didn’t think to ask! I know they have other clients, but she never made me feel like she was “too busy” for me; I felt like a priority. She also responded super quickly to all emails. While I was hurt, they sent someone to my house to handle the paperwork for me. They explained the process and followed up with me often to see how I was feeling, providing case updates along the way. I told Carmen several times, that they really were the silver lining in a horrible experience. You can tell they care. I hope to never be in another accident, but if I am, there is no way I would even consider another attorney. I rarely write reviews, but they’re very deserving of this. I want everyone to know, you’re in great hands with Henningsen Injury Attorneys. Highly recommended!

I was introduced to Henngsen Injury Attorneys in 2019 by a friend. I have been represented by this great firm twice in the past 3 years, each time I had... read more the privilege of having the representation of Paralegal Tamera Smith and Mr. Henningsen as my attorney . If I had to describe this team in four words it would be; tenacious, brilliant, strategic, and compassionate. This team helped me achieve the highest settlement in my life time. I pray that I won't endure another collision, however in the event that it happens again I will not hesitate to call Henningsen Injury Attorneys.
