"I highly recommend Mr. Keenan. I have personally observed him aggressively defend his clients in court. I watched him cross-examine a police officer who crumbled under the pressure of his vigorous and pointed questions, resulting in a "not guilty" verdict. His creativity and engaging communication skills make him an ideal advocate. He will never rush a case or be pressured into quick pleas. He carefully evaluates every case to determine the best course of action, and he works tirelessly to obtain the best possible results. He is well-equipped with the skills and courage to take the case all the way to trial and make the prosecution prove its case, yet he possesses the wisdom to know when the evidence warrants an aggressive plea bargain. He remains passionate about his cases and clients, despite the many years he has practiced. Few lawyers with Mr. Keenan’s tenacity have such integrity and sensitivity to go along with these skills."
