Not only did Keith get my felony charge dropped, he got ALL 7 of them dismissed which would've put a stain on my record as well as affecting my future in all areas.
I HIGHLY endorse Keith. He is smart, dedicated, and conscientious. He's an effective advocate because he truly cares about his clients.
He was confident, calm, professional, and helpful throughout the entire process. He is truly a sincere, caring person who will put your fears to rest. He worked hard to get the best possible outcome for my case, and I highly recommend him! Thank you so much Keith!

Because of Keith, I’m able to write this review right now. I was facing a possible twenty years in prison and was able to close my case with probation instead. He is an amazing lawyer, and Shena was a pleasure to work with. Keith kept me updated every step of the way, while simultaneously making sure I wasn’t anxious the entire length of the case. He isn’t the type to contact you just for the sake of contacting you. Rather, he will let you know if there is anything in particular that he needs from you and handles the rest on his own. If you do end up having a question or wanting to meet with
