About Kenneth
Kenneth Love earned his J.D. from the University of Cincinnati College of Law (2003). He moved from classroom to courtroom in the years that followed, building a practice grounded in consumer bankruptcy law. The law school experience gave him the tools to handle both routine filings and more contested matters.
After law school he entered practice in North Carolina and later gained admission to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. He became a partner at Love & Dillenbeck, PLLC in 2013. That role placed him at the center of a small firm environment where cases require hands-on attention from intake through resolution.
Over time his work narrowed toward consumer bankruptcy. The North Carolina State Bar recognized that concentration by certifying him as a Specialist in Consumer Bankruptcy Law. He also maintains membership in the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Lawyers. Those affiliations reflect continued engagement with the issues and procedures unique to bankruptcy practice.
Clients and other lawyers most often see him handling Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases, adversary proceedings, and matters that touch on bankruptcy litigation. He appears in both state and federal forums in North Carolina, and his admission to the Fourth Circuit allows him to file and argue appeals when cases move beyond the trial level. He handles creditor negotiations, discharge disputes, and issues related to exemptions and reaffirmations.
Colleagues describe him as someone who prefers practical problem-solving to legal theory. He combines courtroom experience with the everyday work of preparing petitions, schedules, and plans. That mix shapes his approach: prioritize the client’s immediate legal needs, then address the longer-term consequences of a bankruptcy filing.
Love maintains offices in Greensboro and Charlotte, where he meets clients and manages casework. The firm environment keeps him involved in both the business side of practice and the day-to-day litigation tasks. He continues to participate in professional groups and stay current on statutory and procedural changes that affect consumer debtors and creditors.
His current practice centers on consumer bankruptcy and related litigation.
