The Best!!

Attorney Charles Keefe is patient, kind and attentive. His knowledge of NH law is unsurpassed. He was recommended to me by numerous people who had used his services in the past and had successful outcomes in difficult situations. I was stopped for not changing lanes for an emergency vehicle on the... side of the road. This is known as the "move over law". I was unfamiliar with the law and was expecting to take the next exit. After spending considerable amount of time on the side of the road, the troopers arrested me for DUI, resisting arrest and for the failure to move over to an emergency vehicle. During trial, Attorney Keefe was quick to point out the lack of evidence the troopers had for making me exit the vehicle. He was also successful in having everything that took place after exiting the vehicle suppressed. The result of the trial was favorable. All charges were dropped with the exception of the "failure to move over". Had Attorney Keefe not been successful, it would have resulted in loss of license for a extended amount of time and all the painful procedures which come from a DUI charge. While working with Attorney Keefe's law office, I found not only him, but his administrator and his legal assistant to be extremely professional and responsive to my many phones call and inquiries. All the responses I received were prompt, complete and sensitive to my concerns. Attorney Keefe did an amazing job, went above and beyond the call of duty, spent extra time and effort on this case, but never charged more than the agreed upon price. Quite often when working with the legal system, one feels like a victim of that system. It's of the utmost importance to find a lawyer who not only knows the system, but works for you the client, instead of just going through the motions. Your lawyer should be able to offer you options, present alternatives and seek out opportunities. Attorney Keefe did just that. I am so grateful to him and his staff. Thank you

Charles J Keefe

I was recently in need of a criminal defense attorney and Attorney Keefe was recommended by a family friend. He was absolutely the right choice. Attorney Keefe provided all the necessary information that kept me fully informed through a very difficult situation. During our initial meeting, Attorn...ey Keefe laid out the process step by step of what I should expect. During the many hearings and meetings, he demonstrated a level of compassion and professionalism that is unmatched. He was able to translate the legal terminology so that a layperson could understand and make the right decisions with respect to the case. I am indebted to Attorney Keefe for presenting a successfull case and for help in keeping my head above water through the process.

Very stressful

My loved one had this lawyer pull out on him 10 days prior to trial because he did not have enough time. Months earlier at first pre trial hearing he was not ready and it went like that every step of the way. Family and client called, no calls were returned and secretary never had an answer to where... he was. Totally left in the dark for a year- new lawyer is moving process along. It was a terrible stressful experience for everyone involved

It is unfortunate and disappointing that a client or family member would be unhappy with my representation. I take my cases and clients personally, and I pride myself on my reputation with clients, colleagues, and judges built over 23 years in criminal law for always being incredibly prepared and standing up for my clients. I have had the opportunity and pleasure of fighting and winning murder trials, assaults, and all other criminal charges. On the rare occasions I have had to withdraw from a case, it is always due to a conflict of interest; never because I was not prepared. Clients facing serious charges and their families are incredibly difficult positions. That is why I often provide my cell phone number to clients and family members and refund all of a client's money should I have to withdraw. I hope for the best of all my clients, current and former, and I'm glad whenever I hear that they are on a positive road.

Not a good lawyer

Very unprofessional. Hired him and he took my money and didn’t fight hard for me. Horrible communication and representation I recommend someone else

Every client is important to me. Each of their concerns and goals are always foremost in my mind when representing someone. I work hard every day – nights and weekends – to make sure I fight as hard for my clients as possible. Client communication is incredibly important to me as I understand that proceeding through a criminal case without fully understanding everything that is happening can be both frightening and frustrating. That is why I pride myself on my reputation for always fighting for my clients and keeping in regular contact with them throughout the case. My results and reputation speak to just this. A review like this is difficult to see, and I take such criticism very personally. If you are reading my reviews, I ask that you read others as those truly reflect how dedicated I am to my clients. All of those other 5-star reviews are the true representation of my practice and how I interact with clients. Thank you for reading my response.
