Beyond his client representation, Kensky serves as a sought-after educator within the defense bar, regularly teaching annual CLE case-law updates and training other criminal and traffic defense lawyers on the latest decisions from Virginia's appellate courts. His expertise has made him the attorney fellow practitioners call when they need precise legal citations, nuanced arguments, or precedent that can prove decisive in negotiations or at trial. This educational role underscores his commitment to elevating the entire defense bar's capabilities.
