About Keith
Biography
Keith is originally from Pennsylvania, but has made Florida his home since 2010. He earned his Bachelor of Science from Penn State and a Juris Doctor from Florida A&M University College of Law. At My Affordable Attorney, he focuses on making high-quality legal representation accessible to everyday people. My Affordable Attorney offers a 25 percent flat-fee contingency model, unlike the typical 33 to 40 percent charged by most firms, because we take less so our clients keep more.
Keith has handled a wide range of cases, successfully litigated thousands of claims in both the trial and appellate courts. Having been published multiple times, Keith is often brought in by other attorneys across Florida to assist with complex litigation and appeals. He has represent clients from all backgrounds, including individuals and multimillion-dollar businesses. He is admitted to practice in all Florida state courts, the United States District Courts for the Northern, Middle, and Southern Districts of Florida, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit.
If someone you know has been injured and needs representation, or if you are a medical professional who treats injury patients, I am available 24/7 for phone or virtual consultations. I work out of Daytona Beach and help clients throughout Florida get the results they deserve while guiding them through the process with professionalism and as little stress as possible.
