Keith L Altman

I thought I had lost my degree. I (F) was terrified of my professors/program heads (M), the school dropped the investigation, and I didn't even know if they had followed through on their threat to eject me from the program for standing up to them. This was only a single month before my graduation. I ...even already had a job lined up, but it was one that required the degree. Keith Altman and Tanner Brooks negotiated the completion of classes and obtaining my degree and transcripts. They saved my work from dissolving into nothing, and I was able to move on with my life and my job. I am so grateful to them everyday.

I was wrongly accused of cheating at a previous university. The professor was adamant about their accusations and made it their last move to accuse me before retiring from a long career. As a result, his word carried significant weight and I was told I'd lose because of the preponderance of the evide...nce. This would cause me to fail the class and would draw questions from every employer in my industry going forward. With the help of Keith, Tim, and the rest of the team, they were able to advise me on what to say during calls with the university and how to frame my defense over the course of the entire case, which was almost 18 months in length. We were able to bring the sanction down to a warning with no external impact, and I recently received an offer from my dream company, likely aided by the teams support. They are timely, professional, extremely knowledgeable, and I would recommend them to anyone looking to fight any academic accusations.

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.

I paid this lawyer $11,000 and he did nothing but take my money. I was in my last Semester at Roane State Nursing, and the Disability Dept. The Asst. Dean and Instructor worked hand in hand to prevent me from graduating. I gave proof to support my claim, and he agreed to take the case, long story sh...ort, I paid $350 for a consultation, and another $11,000 and all they did was tell me what the school dtated they were not willing to do. I never received an opportunity to meet wth the legal team and the college to discuss my case. Altman sent me emails through the portal stating they did not get a response from the college on several occasions, Then I received a letter stating they were closing my case. It seems as if they take large sums of money from their clients ad deliver nothing. I have over $80,000 in student debt, and for a firm to take advantage of vulnerable people is devastating. Do not waste your money and time with this law firm they will scam you and give nothing in return!

I signed a retainer agreement with K Altman Law on April 30 and paid $11,000. By May 6 — just one week later — I had already asked for a refund. Why? Because all they did was attend one meeting. No letters, no legal action, no strategy. They refused to send even a single demand letter. I had alrea...dy exhausted my university’s appeal and grievance channels when I hired them — they knew this was my last resort. They offered a partial refund of $3,000 — but only if I signed a non-disparagement agreement. I declined. They kept $8,000 for doing virtually nothing. Every legal document in my case — TRO, exhibits, filings — I had to write myself. This firm did not represent me. They abandoned me.
