John W. Kilpatrick III, Esq.
John Kilpatrick grew up in Clermont, FL. He earned his law degree from Stetson University College of Law in Gulfport, FL. While in law school, John made the dean’s list and competed with his school’s moot court team. Prior to law school, John went to Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, FL, where he played collegiate baseball.
After law school, John started his career as a public defender in Pinellas County, FL. John always knew he wanted to represent individuals injured by the negligence of others, but was set on getting good trial experience before he made the switch over to civil law. After a couple of years doing criminal law, John began working for a boutique insurance defense firm where he had the opportunity to handle million dollar cases involving wrongful death, premises liability, products liability, catastrophic personal injury, and contract disputes. During this time, John had the opportunity to represent some very well-known national companies and insurance carriers. Then, prior to starting his own firm, John was employed as litigation counsel for a nationally known Fortune 50 insurance carrier.
In his free time, John enjoys spending time with his wife and two boys. When he isn’t working, you can find them on the Clermont Chain of Lakes, on the beach in New Smyrna, or coaching his son’s teams at the Groveland Little League fields.
John is equipped to guide you through the process of making a personal injury claim due to his extensive experience representing insurance companies and their insureds. He knows what tactics they will try to use against you, and will prepare you to avoid the many pitfalls that are out there.

"John is one of those attorneys who really stands out from the crowd. He's incredibly sharp, works hard, and clearly knows his stuff. But what really makes him impressive is how much he genuinely cares about the people he helps…he’s not just in it for the win, but for doing right by his clients. I highly recommend John Kilpatrick Law!"

"Working with John was an absolute game-changer for my case. He handled my case with professionalism, expertise, and empathy. He fought hard for me, even putting in extra hours, and secured a settlement far beyond my expectations. Communication was always clear, and he kept me updated every step of the way. I highly recommend John."

"John Kilpatrick is a gifted personal injury attorney who actually cares for and empathizes with the people he represents. He is extremely detail oriented, professional, and skilled at his work. What sets John apart from larger firms that constantly roll out new tv commercials is that he always places his client's best interest first above profit and expediency. I highly recommend John Kilpatrick to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney."

"John has great negotiation skills. His approach towards personal injury is different than other billboard lawyers, where you don’t even get to talk to a real lawyer. At his firm, your case will be handle with care and compassion. I highly recommend him!"

"John is the definition of a professional. He picked up my case in a difficult situation and immediately took action in defending me. The service I received was completely different than I previously encountered within this industry. He made it apparent that he genuinely cared about my situation. John consistently gave me updates every step of the way and always took my calls when I had questions. I can’t word a higher recommendation."
