About Podor Law
Since 1985, we've been committed to providing exceptional legal representation with integrity, compassion, and unwavering dedication to our clients.
Our Journey
Kenny Podor began practicing personal injury law in 1978 with a singular vision: to provide individuals and families with personal, compassionate legal representation during life's most challenging moments. In the 1980s, Kenny participated in the largest wrongful death and medical malpractice case in Ohio's history, cementing his reputation as a formidable advocate for the injured.
The firm established permanent roots with the purchase and remodeling of our Ohio office building in 2001. A pivotal moment came in 2008 when The Podor Law Firm was restructured and re-established with a renewed commitment to treat clients like family, ensuring every client receives individualized attention from our experienced attorneys.
Our expansion continued in 2016 when Attorney Jesse Podor joined the team, establishing our Florida office. Today, under the leadership of Kenny and Jesse Podor, our firm continues to grow while staying true to our core mission of fighting tirelessly for the rights of those who have been injured through no fault of their own.
