Kennedy Hunt Law

What Kennedy Hunt Law does

Kennedy Hunt, P.C. (DBA Kennedy Hunt Law) is a six-attorney plaintiff-side civil rights law firm headquartered at 4500 West Pine Blvd., St. Louis, Missouri. The firm exclusively represents employees, students, individuals with disabilities, and victims of civil rights violations — never employers or institutions — and operates across three interlocking practice areas: Employment Law (discrimination, retaliation, whistleblowing, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, wage-and-hour/FLSA collective and class actions), Education Law (special education, IDEA due process, IEP disputes, school discipline discrimination), and Civil Rights Law (free speech, due process, equal protection). The firm, formerly known as the Law Offices of Thomas E. Kennedy, III, L.C., was rebranded to reflect a partnership between founder Thomas E. Kennedy III and Managing Partner Sarah Jane Hunt, and now serves clients across Missouri and Illinois, including matters in the Circuit Court of the City of St. Louis, St. Charles County, Boone County (Columbia Public Schools), and the Southern District of Illinois.

The firm has no proprietary technology platform; service delivery is built on attorney expertise, case intake questionnaires hosted on the firm website, and traditional litigation infrastructure. Core operations rest on the specialized domain knowledge of its attorneys — Kennedy in long-standing civil rights advocacy for the poor, disabled, and minorities, and Hunt in wage-and-hour class/collective actions and special education disputes. The firm monetizes through professional services fee arrangements: contingency fees on discrimination and civil rights matters (the dominant model), hourly billing on employment and education disputes, and class action recovery on wage-and-hour claims. Go-to-market is sales-led and referral-driven, supported by content marketing (regular blog posts across employment, education, civil rights, disability, and local news categories), an active presence on Facebook, X, LinkedIn, and Instagram, attorney profile videos, and client testimonials that function as social proof within the St. Louis regional market.

Business model mechanics are anchored to a regional, plaintiff-side positioning rather than scale: the firm grows by acquiring individual cases and class action matters (e.g., the May 2026 class action against Kellermeyer Bergensons Services, Hospitality Staffing Solutions, G&A Services, and Amazon.com Services over unpaid wages) and converting them into fee-generating engagements. No external funding, parent company, or institutional investors are disclosed; the firm operates as an independently owned professional corporation. Customer concentration is structurally diffuse at the plaintiff level but case-mix concentrated by matter type, and pricing is not publicly disclosed — fees are quote-based and determined by case complexity, with free initial consultations used as the lead-conversion mechanism.

Revenue model

1. Legal Services - Contingency Fee: The firm represents clients in civil rights, employment, and education law cases. For many discrimination and civil rights cases, the firm likely operates on contingency fee arrangements where fees are collected only if the case is successful. This is typical for employment discrimination and civil rights litigation.
2. Legal Services - Hourly Billing: For certain case types, the firm may bill on an hourly basis for legal representation. Employment law cases, wrongful termination claims, and special education disputes typically involve hourly or contingency fee arrangements.
