Linda Kenney Baden, is a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Rutgers School of Law and Rutgers University. Following graduation from law school, She served a judicial clerkship with the Presiding Judge of the Appellate Division, Judge John F. Lynch and then entered private practice with the law firm of Meyner and Landis in Newark. Ms. Kenney Baden was later appointed Assistant Prosecutor for the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office where she served as a trial team leader and the lead attorney assigned to the Sex Crimes Investigative Unit. During her tenure with the Prosecutor’s Office, she prepared and tried numerous criminal cases including those involving murder and the death penalty. Ms. Kenney Baden was awarded an “AV” rating through Martindale-Hubbell, the highest rating that one can attain. This rating signifies “that her legal abilities are of the very highest standard and that her professional ethics and conduct are above question.” Ms. Kenney Baden has been involved in numerous cases before the New Jersey Supreme Court and federal courts, making new law with regard to civil rights and employment cases. In fact, in an Opinion issued by the United States Third Circuit Court of Appeals, Ms. Kenney Baden’s work was characterized as “exceptional, fine and outstanding.” ** Additionally, in June 2010, a New Jersey Court in granting a seven figure fee aware in a high profile civil case, praised Ms. Kenney Baden and her co-counsel as “extremely capable” for their “persistent, extraordinary efforts and the results which they obtained” in a ten year fight on behalf of the Spring Lake First Aid Squad. ** The late Johnnie Cochran, in his book “A Lawyer’s Life,” wrote that Ms. Kenney Baden was a “brilliant New Jersey attorney.”
