I contacted Mr. Weidner after my insurance company failed to address my home's damage from Hurricane Sally. He and his staff immediately contacted the insurance company and I received a check within days. I am incredibly grateful to Mr. Weidner and his staff.

Great attorney!!
Mr. Weidner was very helpful with my case. I had been trying to negotiate a lightning claim on my house for a few months with my insurance company.(Wish I could name them. They flat out refused to listen to me and my legitimate claim) After he took my case, from the time he submitted my claim to the ...

knowledgeable and very responsive
I needed a lawyer to represent me for a very complicated care accident. The liability in my case was very challenging. The reason I choose Keith and his firm was because I explained my case and he had a clear understanding and assured me of legal right's and addressed all my concern's. Duri...

Happy with our lawyer and the success of our homeowner's claim
On October 18, 2007 our home in Pensacola was struck by a tornado at a time when one of us was in the house. The yard was torn up but the damage to the roof of the house was not apparent until it began to leak, several months later, due to breakage of the asbestos shingles and perforation of the unde...
Keith William Weidner's Lawyer Endorsements
"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."
"I strongly endorse Mr. Weidner as an attorney. He is experienced. He is bright. He is passionate about his work. If myself or anyone in my family needed an attorney, I would feel very trusted to hire him. I have referred many clients to him and he has done an excellent job one each of these referrals."
"Mr. Weidner invited me to his office when I first returned to the area after finishing law school to network. He is a fellow Marine Veteran. He is as knowledgeable as he is kind and approachable. I endorse him without hesitation."
"I've happily referred clients to Keith Weidner for both personal injury and civil rights actions. I've always heard great feedback and will continue to recommend him. I endorse this lawyer."
"Keith is very thorough. He handles car wreck cases quickly and efficiently, and he always tries to maximize the recovery for his clients. I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this talented and knowledgeable attorney, who is well-respected in the legal community."

"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have referred Keith and other lawyers in his firm numerous cases. Keith always provides his clients with top-notch representation."
"Keith is a great lawyer who cares about his clients and leaves no stone unturned in investigating and pursuing claims."
"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."
"I have been sending clients to Keith Weidner since 2003 or earlier and all of them have reported back as satisfied with his services. He has also been eager to assist me in areas of his expertise when I needed it over the years."
"I endorse this lawyer. I recently resolved a case with Keith in Mediation and was impressed with his preparation, professionalism and advocacy on behalf of his client."
"I have confidently referred a number of clients to Mr. Weidner. He is an aggressive attorney who also does an excellent job of explaining the litigation process to clients. I strongly endorse this attorney."
"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."
"I endorse this lawyer's work."
