Brian A. McKenna
A Career Built on Advocating for the Injured
Brian McKenna has spent his entire legal career fighting for people who have been seriously injured throughout Michigan. From the start, he has focused on helping individuals navigate difficult times and hold insurance companies and negligent parties accountable.
Before joining Sinas Dramis Law Firm, Brian was a shareholder and Board of Directors member at Sachs Waldman, one of Michigan’s most respected personal injury law firms. In 2018, he brought his years of experience to Sinas Dramis, where he now serves as a Partner and a key leader within the firm and the larger legal community.
Leading the Metro-Detroit Office
When Brian joined the Sinas Dramis team, the firm was expanding to better serve residents in Southeast Michigan. As a well-known and trusted Michigan personal injury lawyer, he took on the responsibility of leading the Metro-Detroit office, located in St. Clair Shores.
Today, Brian focuses much of his work on representing injury victims who are struggling with insurance benefit denials – helping them secure the care and compensation they are legally entitled to. His clients appreciate his knowledge, integrity, and tireless advocacy during what are often some of the most challenging times in their lives.
Brian earned his undergraduate degree from Ferris State University, graduating with high honors, and went on to receive his law degree from Wayne State University Law School in 1993.
He is licensed to practice in both Michigan and Illinois, and he is admitted to practice before:

Brian has been a member of the Michigan Association for Justice (MAJ) since 1992 and has served on its Executive Board since 1997. He is also involved with the State Bar of Michigan Negligence Law Section, where he is a longtime member and former Council Member.
In addition to his work as a trial lawyer, Brian has contributed to the legal field as a coach for the Wayne State University Law School National Mock Trial Team, sharing his courtroom experience with the next generation of trial attorneys.
Life Outside the Office
