Former juror review

I was a juror on one of attorney Keefe's trials, so I had the pleasure of watching him in action for a week. I was amazed at how aggressively yet skillfully he defended his client. His client got a very well deserved "not guilty" and I told myself if I ever needed to hire a defense attorney, he would... be the one. Highly recommended.

Freedom is pricless.

Charles made a confusing, demoralizing and uncertain time a lot more tolerable. I found him to be upfront, genuinely honest and optimistic. He helped me understand the charges and potential penalties. Laid out a plan and kept me informed throughout the process. He ultimately was able to get my c...ase dismissed before we went to trial. That in itself is priceless. Without reservation I highly recommend Mr. Keefe as a criminal defense attorney.

Charles Keefe IS the attorney to hire in NH; no ifs ands or buts...

Mr. Keefe was a great find in my time of need! I never thought a day would come that I would need this type of lawyer. The day I found him, he met with me for my last minute request the next day after initial contact to discuss my case. I felt that i was arrested unjustly and the case bordered on out...right entrapment. I was charged with 2 felonies and 2 misdemeanors (all drug related); subsequently i was a nervous wreck. In jeopardy of losing my career and my personal relationships. Throughout the whole stressful ordeal, Mr. Keefe kept me informed regarding what would be happening; including potential negative outcomes as well as possible successful conclusions. Despite the dire circumstances involving my case, he made me feel comfortable and respected. Mr. Keefe explained all my options without all the complicated legal chat. I was able to ask questions freely and felt like he was able to relate to and understand me. At the end, the case was completely dismissed (today actually - i'm still amazed at the outcome) and I am all smiles! I cannot thank Mr. Keefe enough. I highly recommend him. He is great at what he does and it was a true blessing to have found him and have him representing me on this complex case. Though I hope to never have to hire him again, if anyone i know happens to come across a judicial matter, I have Mr. Keefe's contact details ready to go! Ever so grateful to be able to put this all behind me...Thanks again!!!!

Superb Attorney and held in my highest regard

I have worked in law enforcement so I am very familiar with the legal process and statutes of law. I found myself in an awful situation in May 2011. I was charged with two counts of simple assault against my own sister. She was not the complaining party. It was actually the center for life manage...ment in Derry, NH. One staff member there alleged that I grabbed my sister's wrist and grabbed her cheek in a hostile manner. The other staff member, a nurse, alleged that I grabbed my sister's wrist. Both women twisted and manipulated a story from their own imagination. They failed to admit that I was actually demonstrating self defense techniques with my sister. The police did not interview me or my sister. The local prosecutor asked me to plead guilty to one charge in exchange for dropping another. Of course, I would not do so because the charges should never have been filed. The prosecutor refused to even speak with my sister, the alleged victim, about her version of what occurred. Attorney Keefe instilled my confidence in his abilities to take this matter to trial. He was very cordial and informative throughout the entire process. He returned my phone calls and emails promptly. I was not able to pay the entire retainer up front due to financial constraints and he worked out an agreed upon installment plan. The case recently went to trial. My sister never even had to testify on my behalf. Attorney Keefe was thoroughly prepared to defend me. He showed repeated inconsistencies in both witnesses'(staff members for CLM) testimony. Through his conscientious preparation, Attorney Keefe was able to show that each witness had a different version of what occurred the day in question. After his thorough direct and cross examination, objections when necessary, and skill as an attorney the case was dismissed. I give Attorney Charles Keefe the highest rating possible in all categories. He is a true professional and seasoned attorney. I felt very safe and confident in his ability to defend me.

Attorney Charles Keefe is exceptional.

Integrity, professionalism and unsurpassed expertise is why anyone needing defense in MA or NH should hire Attorney Chuck Keefe. After seeking recommendations and investigating bios and reviews of criminal defense attorneys, I retained Attorney Keefe to represent me in a case before Nashua District ...Court. Despite his demanding schedule, he is clearly compassionate with his clients and result-driven with their cases. He immediately returned my phone calls and emails and never delegated any aspect of the case. He worked tirelessly and obtained the result we sought. In court, he is fierce but obviously well-connected and very well-respected among other lawyers, clerks and judges. I was so grateful to have hired Attorney Keefe for representation. Attorney Keefe's skill in a courtroom, education, and extensive experience both as a NH prosecutor and in private practice give him a thorough understanding of the law and confidence of a positive outcome for his clients. The numerous awards, respect by newspapers and other media sources, and most importantly, his track record, have earned Attorney Keefe a reputation as one of the best lawyers in the state. In immeasurable ways, Attorney Keefe distinguishes himself from the rest.
