Keith L Altman

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.

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 paid K Altman Law $16,000 for an expulsion and Title IX attorney. After taking my payment, communication almost completely stopped. I went six weeks with no updates, no guidance, and no response at all. Then on Aug 19, I finally got an email saying the lawyer I hired, Amelia Lafont, was “no long...er with the firm” and they were still trying to figure out what happened with my case. I was never notified she left. No replacement attorney. No transition. No plan. No work product. To this day, I have not been refunded the $16,000, even though I did not receive the representation I paid for. I’ve now filed a formal complaint with the Michigan Attorney Grievance Commission and am submitting a claim to the Michigan Client Protection Fund. This whole experience has been extremely upsetting and unprofessional, and I don’t want anyone else to go through this.
