I have worked with Bob on a number of cases over the years. Extremely knowledgeable and excellent trial attorney. I have actually hired him as an advisor for complex DUI cases due to his extraordinary knowledge and skill in handling DUI's. Would highly recommend him.

"Bob" Keefer is nationally known as the "go to" criminal defense and DUI lawyer in Virginia. He has been the pioneer and champion of DUI defense in Virginia and is relied upon for his insight by attorneys nationwide. If I ever had a friend or family member accused of a DUI or other criminal charge in Virginia, my first and last recommendation would be Bob Keefer without reservation.

Bob Keefer is a real star in the DUI/DWI community. He is a well-known member of the National College for DUI Defense and a great attorney. I strongly recommend him.

I have known Robert Keefer for about 7 years and I can tell you there are very few lawyers that have the same encyclopedic understanding of DUI/DWI law as he does. I could almost call his understanding "old hat" because he is so comfortable with the subject matter, but that wouldn't do it justice. Robert is so much more than just his understanding, he has such an energy about himself, such a desire to learn more, climb the next mountain and most importantly to disprove the next level of non-sense the government is throwing at us! He is similar to what baseball calls a triple threat, he knows the law, is energized by it, and most important has no problem teaching the jury (and prosecution) what they need to know. Anybody that hires Robert Keefer is in good hands....and that's all I am going to say about that!

Bob is a leader in the Virginia criminal defense bar, particularly but not exclusively in the area of DUI Defense. More than any other lawyer I know, Bob has been instrumental in uncovering documents/data from the Division of Forensic Science which make clear the limitations and errors of both the previous and current generation of machines used to prosecute defendants for DUI. Bob has been instrumental in developing new defenses, and his tenacity, innovative and relentless spirit, have well-served justice in Virginia. I know my own practice has benefited from the things I have learned from the product of some of his efforts on behalf of his clients. Thanks Bob and keep it up!

There are many lawyers to choose from. However, there is only one that you can trust to successfully defend your DWI charge. Attorney Keefer is not only an exceptional lawyer, he is a man you can trust. His knowledge of the law and his skill in the courtroom make him a formidable adversary. Attorney Keefer’s persuasive abilities have given him a national reputation as one of the finest advocates for the accused citizen. Without hesitation, I strongly endorse Attorney Keefer.

Bob Keefer is a gentleman who makes this endorsement of his work an easy task because good, honest people are always easy to encourage others to trust. I remember the very first time I met Bob almost 10 years ago. He was a passionate defense attorney who really wanted to attack the Intoxilyzer 5000 breath test machine in his home state of Virginia. I was honored then to answer his questions, and just recently I turned to him for help because his passion to excel and become an innovator in his field has not diminished one bit. He has succeeded in becoming a leader in his practice of DUI defense and I would not hesitate one moment to trust a member of my family to Bob's care.

Having been a member of the National College for DUI Defense for over 10 years now, and as an annual attendee of two to three national DUI defense seminars, I have been privileged to get to know many of our nation's finest DUI defense attorneys. Robert Keefer is undoubtedly amongst this select group. His reputation for professional excellence far exceeds the borders of Virginia. His reputation as a well trained, experienced, ultra talented yet deeply compassionate, DUI defense attorney is not only national but matched by very few. I proudly and loudly endorse Robert Keefer. The citizen accused could be in no better hands. Period. The fact that he is a personal friend is but a bonus.

I am honored to write this endorsement of Bob Keefer's ability as a DUI trial lawyer. I have known Bob for a number of years and value his advise and friendship tremendously. Bob and I met while attending DWI Certification Training and the top DWI seminars in the nation. Bob is well known and respected throughtout the country by the nation's best DUI attorneys. Bob's contributions to our national list server are a constant reminder of the level of excellence he has attained. Bob's committment to continue to push the envelop in the areas of training, innovative confrontation of the breath testing device and program, legal writing and flat out fighting for the rights of his clients. I recently spent an hour with Bob at the airport after attending the nationally renowned "Mastering Scientific Evidence" seminar. How refreshing to break bread with a man of character who is totally committed to doing his very best to advance the interests of his clients. God bless! Jamie "DWI Dude" Balagia

Bob is a tireless defender of anyone accused of DUI. He is dedicated to his clients and their cases. Bob was the first attorney to get the state of Virginia to turn over critical information about their new breath machine, the Intoximeter EC/IR II. In a state saturated with attorneys, Bob is clearly one of the best.

Bob Keefer is an outstanding lawyer and when it comes to DUI defense in the Commonwealth of VA, he ranks among the elite. Following VA's adoption of a new breath testing machine as the "gold standard" across the state, Bob began working on the facts to show that it, in fact, has serious flaws. His efforts were rewarded with numerous court victories in which the reliability of the machine was severely undermined. Bob is dedicated to finding the best solution for his clients' needs and will work tirelessly to achieve great results for those in his care.

Lawrence Newman, DUI and DWI Attorney on Apr 14, 2010

I endorse this lawyer. You would be hard pressed to find a harder working attorney than Rob Keefer. His down to earth manner and ability to listen are just a few of his strengths. He goes the extra mile for his clients and keeps up on the latest scientific research on breath testing. He recently completed the "Mastering Scientific Evidence" Program for DUI in New Orleans. This program is put on by the National College of DUI Defense. Rob is only one of a handful of lawyers from Virginia to attend this program. Rob knows that mastering the forensic science is the key element in effective DUI defense.
