Kenny Cole was born into a military family at Ft. Benning, Georgia and lived throughout the United States and overseas while growing up. He went to high school in Decatur, Alabama after his father retired and the family had returned to their home state.
Cole is a true believer in the justice system. He believes that if the negligence of others plays a part in your personal injury, you should be entitled to compensation for your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, lost enjoyment of life, and suffering. Cole’s tenacity and trial experience make him one of your best choices for your personal injury attorney in Alabama.
Cole graduated from the Vanderbilt University School of Law in 1984, where he also played linebacker for the Vanderbilt Commodores.
He relies on his top quality education in addition to the lessons he has learned through his athletic experiences to develop your case to its fullest potential within the moral, ethical, and legal bounds by which he tries to live his life.
