EXCELLENT LISTENER/ POSITIVE RESULTS

in 2017, Mr Jeremy Keich, handled several different cases for me, from criminal to suspended driver license cases, on several occasions. He was very informative on explaining what options I had, he was always available to answer my questions, and I felt he did an excellent job representing my case.... Each case had an excellent to good outcome for me. I would highly recommend him as your criminal attorney. He also handled my paternity and custody case in family court, did a wonderful job listening to all my details of events, and then did an awesome court presentation too. I was very happy and would highly recommend.

Professional, understanding, and above all, very competent lawyer

Jeremy Keich helped me gain full-custody of my children, and achieve a difficult name-change. Jeremy was always available via email or text to address any questions I had in this very stressful process. He seems to have a great relationship with the judges in both Walton and Okaloosa County, which, l...et’s face it, is very helpful. Jeremy is simultaneously laid-back and approachable, while also being a qualified expert in his field, with a vast knowledge of the law, a foresight for possible obstacles, and an array of solutions for said hurdles. I highly recommend Jeremy to anyone seeking legal advice/help!

Disappointing

Took the retainer money and did nothing but file a couple of motions. Never returned a call. Never answered a message on the client portal and never posted any documents on the portal except for the initial invoice. Don’t hire if you want real representation; very disappointed.

Early in his career, his legal skill, dedication and professionalism stood out among other lawyers. Jeremy has come to be the go-to guy in his area. Jeremy Keich is one of the finest lawyers practicing criminal defense."

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.
