Highly Recommend

I worked with Ms. Keith for years on my case and she was nothing short of amazing. The entire time we worked together she was caring, understanding and gave me her full attention. Not only did Ms. Keith help me resolve my case (in my favor) but she also helped me understand what I needed to do for my...self and for my child to keep our lives moving forward in a positive direction. I would highly recommend Ms. Keith to anyone!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
