Local Legal Lectures
 
 
 

One duty of the county attorney is to educate the community on their legal rights and responsibilities.  Because of this, Kenton County Attorney, Garry Edmondson began speaking to various groups throughout the community on topics such as neighbor law, school law, and elder law. 

Now Edmondson has a dozen seminars he fondly calls Local Legal Lectures.  He is available to talk to your group or business. 

Below you will find examples of various topics that are available.  Please contact Susan Straw at (859) 491-0600 or email at sstraw@kentoncoatty.com to set up a presentation with Garry Edmondson.
