Keith Anthony Fricker

I was assigned Keith A. Fricker through the Xenia District attorney's office as a public defender, and my experience with him was far from satisfactory. Initially, there was a communication breakdown, but this was due to my changing contact information rather than his negligence. However, once we did... get in touch, I found Keith to be overwhelmingly unprofessional and dismissive. He has a very rushed demeanor, which came across as him being disinterested in my case and my circumstances. Despite known logistical challenges, such as transportation issues, he had no empathy or understanding, which resulted in him ridiculing me for being late to my court date. Keith's attitude was outright despicable; he spoke in a manner that was highly disrespectful and condescending. At times, he made me feel as if he doubted my mental capacity, despite my ability to articulate my situation clearly. Furthermore, this was all before we had even met face-to-face to discuss my case adequately. His behavior made me question whether there were underlying racial biases affecting his interactions with me. Counsel from the courts replaced my original lawyer with Keith at the last minute, and I am still baffled by this decision. He barely took the time to understand my side of the story, and instead, his primary focus was on pushing me to accept a guilty plea. This lack of genuine interest in my case and his failure to explain the full spectrum of my legal situation left me feeling unsupported and misrepresented. In conclusion, I would not recommend Keith A. Fricker for any legal representation, especially in criminal cases. His lack of respect, understanding, and basic professional decency makes him unworthy of trust in such critical legal matters. I plan to explore options to appeal my case, as I believe the outcome was unjustly influenced by inadequate representation. If you're considering Keith Fricker for your defense or any legal issues, my advice would be to rethink and seek a more accountable and respectful attorney. Your legal representation should fight for you, not against you.

i am working with fricker now, and will continue to update this review as he handles my case. as of now, i had a social security hearing july, 3 days before fricker POSTPONES my hearing and switches it to an in person, yes during covid he wanted in person. when i ask when you think that would be? ...he says " doesn't matter, it's my prefence" turns out it's NOT his preference it's mine. and if he had read just a few pages into my medical paperwork, he know i DO NOT leave my house often, so the in-person is going to be traumatic for me. so i'm staying positive, we will see how things unravel, and i will update as time goes on
