The granddaughter of Kansas farmers, Ms. Durrett relocated nearly ten times in her youth, living in various places on the East Coast, as her father earned his living in the automobile industry. Now proud to call Louisville home for the last 24 years, Ms. Durrett is a founding partner of Durrett & Kersting. It is this nomadic, though fundamentally Midwestern, upbringing that makes Ms. Durrett a straight shooting, hard fighting advocate for her clients. Ms. Durrett graduated from the University of North Carolina and earned her law degree from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. After practicing insurance defense for two years in metropolitan Dallas, Texas, she relocated to Louisville to start a family in 2002. After working in insurance defense in Louisville for another five years, Ms. Durrett opened her own practice in 2007, shortly after having twin sons. In 2014, Ms. Durrett founded this firm with Ms. Kersting based on the philosophy that the formula for success is compassionate, zealous and ethical representation of her clients.
