Very Happy

Bart was the best decision I ever made. I had a child custody battle that lasted for years and was very stressful. Bart was right along my side through it all. He listened to what I was trying to achieve and made it happen. He was very good at always returning my calls and emails. Very professional a...nd very knowledgeable. My husband also used his services and achieved the same results. He was worth every penny and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for representation. I can’t thank him enough for all the hard work he did for us and the results we were able to obtain.

Alimony Adjustment

I am so pleased with the services of Attorney Keil that I would highly recommend him to others. He is very professional, yet personable. His attention to his client and their issues is exceptional and always positive and keeps his client well informed of progress. When the unexpected occurs, he's ...there to handle it and truly has his client's best interest in mind. Attorney Keil has met and exceeded my expectations in this matter and I would select him again in a heartbeat. My choice to use his services was based on other lawyers opinions of him and they were all high and the attorney's ratings were accurate. You will not be disappointed if you choose Mr. Keil to represent you.

Exactly what I wanted

I went to Mr.Kiel with a specific mission. When I explained how I wanted to approach the issues he was supportive and responsive. At no time did he pressure me or give me advice against my original request. When the time came to change our approach he supported that decision and advised me accordingl...y. I would highly recommend his services. As a side note, Mr. Kiel's office staffers are kind and smart and motivated. I've had numerous encounters with Ashley. She handles my calls professionally, efficiently and effectively, with kindness in her voice.

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.
