About Keith
Biography
I am a partner at Proetta & Oliver. Prior to founding the firm in 2017, I was a partner at one of the State's largest criminal defense firms. My entire practice is dedicated to criminal defense work, which includes matters in Federal Court (United States District Court), Monmouth County Superior Court, Mercer County Superior Court and local Municipal Court’s throughout Monmouth and Mercer County. I personally handle all of the offices indictable (felony) matters that arise out of Monmouth and Mercer County. Some of the more common cases I handle are aggravated assault, armed robbery, burglary, drug distribution, drug possession, driving while intoxicated, shoplifting, eluding and carjacking. One of my main goals outside of zealously fighting for my clients, is making sure that all their rights are fully protected and concerns are properly addressed throughout their case. I have the experience necessary to assure that your rights are fully protected. If you need any further assistance please feel free to contact me.

"I happily endorse this attorney. I have known Keith for several years and I have had the pleasure of working with him at the same law firm in the past and now again in the present. The fact that he made partner at one of the largest criminal & DWI defense firms in New Jersey at the age of 30 is just a testament to how much of a workhorse this guy is. The main focus of Keith's practice is centered around defending indictable (felony) crimes and he takes a lot of pride in his work and makes sure his clients are kept apprised during all stages of the court process and representation."
