Amy L. Keim

My daughter was court appointment this so called attorney. She showed up to her first hearing and could not provide any information at all. My daughter was ordered to have a D&A evaluation within 5 weeks of her incarceration. After the 5 weeks had come and gone I tried to reach Ms. Keim to question h...er as to why it had not been done no no avail. She NEVER called me back. She apparently has no secretary because all I ever got was her voicemail. I left messages at her office and on her cell phone begging her to call me back. My daughters hearing before the judge was an even bigger joke. I called her the day of the hearing and begged her to call me, I even offered her money if that is what it was going to take for a return phone call. I NEVER got that call. I was at the courthouse praying that she would be there to represent my daughter, that is how much faith I had in this woman. She did in fact show up but she knew nothing about my daughter. She had NO file on my daughter. All she had on her was her purse. She was questioning me about the case and then decided to get the prosecutors file to remind her of my daughters case. She looked at me and said “your daughter isn’t getting out today, she never had her evaluation done”. SHE WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS HAD SHE RETURNED MY PHONE CALLS!!!! She went in front of the judge without having my daughter there to see or hear what was happening! My daughter had every right to appear in front of the judge on her own case but was not given that right!!! There is so much more but unfortunately my daughter is still in jail and has this woman to blame for it. The judge said that he wanted her in front of him within 24 hrs of the evaluation. It was done the very next day. 24 hrs has come and gone. WE NEED HELP!!! How to I protect my daughter from any further injustice?? Please do not hire this woman! Again, my daughter was court appointed her.... WE DID NOT HAVE A COICE!!
