Why did I choose to go into personal injury law in Lafayette? Because in personal injury law I have the opportunity to help improve someone’s life.
For an injured person, dealing with an injury claim alone is a scary and overwhelming experience.
Helping them navigate the process during a time of great distress allows me to provide a positive impact in an otherwise very stressful situation.
Simply put, I love to use my skills as a lawyer to make my client’s bad situation better.

Life and Family:
Kenny is married to Samantha, and they have two children, Kenneth Michael Habetz, III, and Samuel Ashcraft Habetz. The family enjoys spending their time together engaging in activities like tennis, hunting, fishing, traveling, and being with friends and extended family.
Kenny grew up in the rural town of Crowley, Louisiana, as the oldest of four children. In this close-knit community, families knew each other well, gathering at school, sports events, church, or local civic activities. People looked out for one another, always ready to lend a hand in times of need, embodying the true spirit of being a good neighbor.
From a young age, Kenny developed a strong work ethic while helping out on his family farm. He believes that hard work and dedication are essential for a successful harvest, a lesson that has stayed with him throughout his life. His time on the football field reinforced these values, teaching him that practice, commitment, and executing a well-thought-out plan are the keys to achieving consistent success.
Kenny’s parents—his mother, a school teacher, and his father, a public housing director—instilled in him the importance of helping others and solving problems.
“The lessons I learned growing up,” Kenny says, “led me to pursue a career in law, where I can identify problems and create solutions that deliver the best results for my clients.”
