Highly Recommended

Keith assisted me in a case regarding a long-term disability. At all times, he was extremely professional, forthcoming with information, and dutiful to my claim. His paralegal, Diana, was also an amazing resource and never hesitated to answer my questions either via email or phone call. My questions ...were promptly addressed and I knew where my standing in the case was during the entire process - which took about a year to reach a conclusion. Without a doubt, I would recommend Keith and his associates and highly urge others to seek his help if you're unsure of your legal rights.

Keith William Weidner's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Keith
Erik Daniel Diener headshot
Erik Diener

Insurance lawyer | Nov 10

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Weidner was my opposing counsel on a matter involving a property insurance dispute. He represented his client zealously and professionally through trial after taking over for another attorney who, after litigating the file for approximately five (5) years, decided that he did not feel confident in his abilities to try the case. Mr. Weidner took over the file and tried the case shortly after receiving the file. Mr. Weidner seemed very interested in bringing his client finality to her claim in a time efficient manner. This is very important in a profession where the one of the most common client complaints is that the lawyer took too long to resolve the client’s problem."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have not had the pleasure of working on a case with Mr. Weidner but I can tell you that any attorney who takes the time to answer questions on a site such as AVVO and who reaches out to educate the public on what they do, is a good attorney in my book!! This is a tough business and it is hard to find good attorneys who care about their clients. I can tell by Mr. Weidner’s client reviews that he is an attorney who does a great job for his clients. I endorse this lawyer."

Personal injury lawyer | Oct 31

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer's work. I am an attorney in Atlanta, Georgia and a year or two ago, I had a personal injury client who needed to bring her lawsuit in Pensacola, Florida. I had a recommendation to associate Keith Weidner as local and lead counsel on the case and was very glad I did. Keith was very thorough in his preparation of the case and kept me and our client apprised of all progress. The case was ultimately settled through Keith's representation in mediation with a large corporate Defendant and obtained an excellent result for our client. Both the client and I were highly satisfied with Keith's representation. I would be glad to work with him again, if the opportunity arose, and gladly recommend him to other lawyers and to clients. Charney K. Berger, Esq."

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.
