About Ray

After spending 10 years in Chicago, in 2016, my beautiful wife, daughter and I moved back home near our families in southwest Michigan.  I was fortunate to have been offered an opportunity to join Keilen Law, PLC.

Review Ray Steadmon

He gets it!

Posted by

I have worked, side b y side with Ray for several years now. There is no lawyer I've worked with who has been more reliable, harder-working, dedicated to his clients and insightful than Ray. I would not hesitate to have him represent me or a family member if I needed legal counsel, and I cannot recommend him strongly enough.

Jonathan Jilek, Personal injury Attorney on May 21, 2015

Richard Thayer, Personal injury Attorney on Sep 1, 2014
Relationship: Other

I have known Ray for approximately six years and have personal knowledge of his legal expertise, high ethical standards, and attention to detail. More importantly, however, Ray is simply a good person. I would not hesitate to hire Ray within my own firm and will not hesitate to refer clients to Ray when they need assistance in Chicago and/or Illinois.

Alexander Sweis, Personal injury Attorney on Aug 28, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

Ray and I worked as opposing counsel on a case for over two years. I never had any disagreements or issues with Ray's procedure or case evaluation. We were able to come to a reasonable settlement without any difficulty.

Brion Doherty, Personal injury Attorney on Aug 27, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Ray is a great lawyer. I've known him for almost ten years. He is extremely knowledgeable and a great advocate for his clients.
