Todd A. Bresney's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Todd is a smart and savvy litigator. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Prior to being hired by Kanoski Bresney in May 2013, I had heard of Mr. Bresney's reputation for being an aggressive attorney skilled in litigation. Working for him for over 2 and 1/2 years now has only confirmed his reputation. Mr. Bresney is dedicated to serving his clients' best interests. He does not push clients to accept offers of settlement just to avoid trial. He is clearly not afraid to take a case to trial. He is artfully skilled in taking depositions of lay and expert witnesses."
"Todd is a brilliant attorney who works quickly and hard for his clients with excellent results. His knowledge, experience, and trial skills have resulted in significant awards for his clients throughout Central Illinois. I highly recommend Todd."
"Todd is a highly regarded personal injury lawyer in downstate Illinois. In addition to the many substantial settlements he has obtained for his injured clients, he has also won substantial trial verdicts for injury victims, including three large verdicts in just the last few months."
"I endorse this lawyer. Todd is one of the best attorneys I have seen. Todd's knowledge of the evidence in a case as well as other skills he possesses make him an exceptional advocate for the injured victims he represents and a force to be reckoned with."
"I endorse Todd. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"Todd is an aggressive litigator that works tirelessly for his clients."
