Mr. Jennings joined the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin in 2006 and practices in the Firm’s Workers’ Compensation Department. He received his J.D. with honors from the University of North Carolina School of Law, and graduated magna cum laude from North Carolina State University, where he received his B.S. in Animal Science.

Since obtaining his law degree, Mr. Jennings has practiced in the area of workers’ compensation, and is now representing workers having suffered catastrophic injuries as a result of a work accident.

“After working in insurance defense as an attorney for workers’ compensation insurance carriers, I sought to make an immediate, substantial and positive impact on the lives of injured workers in North Carolina,” Mr. Jennings says. “I enjoy explaining the law and helping real people with real problems.”

In addition to being a Board Certified Specialist in Workers' Compensation Law, Mr. Jennings is a member of The Order of Barristers, and the Workplace Injury Litigation Group, as well as the North Carolina Advocates for Justice.
