Keith L Altman

Did a terrible job at making my case and did not put any effort into making contact with the school. Never spoke to an attorney after the initial consultation meeting. Had three or four different attorneys throughout the course of my case. There was a point when I spent four weeks trying to get in co...ntact with someone at the office. Left several messages with no call back. Didn’t have any positive movement in my case and will likely have to hire another attorney.

We paid $11,000, and we do not feel the service justified the cost. We only met with Mr. K. Altman twice. During the first call, he presented himself as having computer science expertise, but the way the discussion went made us feel as though the allegations were being accepted rather than strongly c...hallenged. Communication was also very slow. It took months to send one follow-up letter requesting a legal counsel/academic counsel meeting. In many emails, the case resolution manager simply stated that she could not advise, and the responses we received felt generic. Unfortunately, we lost our case very badly, and we do not feel we received the level of support, strategy, or advocacy we expected. My husband had already received an email from the law office asking for a review, so I am sharing our honest experience. Based on what we went through, we believe the negative reviews are accurate.

I want to warn others: do not pay upfront. I paid $13,000 based on a meeting with the attorneys and the scope of work they outlined during that call. After I paid, the scope changed, and the contract reflecting the reduced scope was created days later and was not signed by Keith Altman until more tha...n two weeks after he took the money.No meaningful services were provided before or after payment, and because the entire $13,000 was taken upfront before a signed contract existed, it has been extremely difficult—if not impossible—to dispute or recover the money.Please learn from my experience: never pay a large fee upfront without a signed contract and a fixed scope of work in writing.
