Timothy Ambrose O'Keefe

I needed help. This was my first time really being faced with some serious charges and I was completely lost. After consulting with Tim, I chose to hire him. He was very thorough helping me navigate the legalese and arrive at a very acceptable outcome. I very much appreciated his candidness and tran...sparency through every step of the process. Tim was very professional every step of the way and gave me excellent representation while saving me money along the way. Thank you, Tim!!

I recently hired Tim to defend my special needs child who had charges pressed against him by a sped teacher at his school. Tim was very up front and honest about all of the possible outcomes and he was very quick to respond whenever I had questions. I appreciated his knowledge and support throughou...t this process and I would definitely hire him again if needed.

Tim is an amazing lawyer. He kept me updated on what was going on day through day. Best lawyer i’ve ever had, he did an amazing job with everything from court systems to pretrial. He was straight up when needed. He exceeded all of my expectations. Without him I wouldn’t be in the place I am in now. I... am very thankful he was my lawyer and I would recommend him to every single one of you who needs a lawyer.

Having suffered severe injustice at an airline in bankruptcy, I came to understand the value of legal representation in the earliest stages of difficulties. As a Legal Shield member since January 2017, I have relied on a number of attorneys on several occasions. This time, a condo building neig...hbor violated me publicly. I consulted with a criminal defense attorney who analyzed my case and assured me I was not in trouble. Unfortunately, the neighbor later escalated his violations to a point where this attorney referred me to Tim O'Keefe. Tim explained legal procedure and analysis in the detail only learned through experience. It is important to state that even though I could have found information on courthouse websites (had I known to go to them), I would have never been able to navigate the process myself. I did not know how to evaluate alternative courses of action or what they were. We decided on a civil protective order. Tim helped me complete the relevant paperwork, accompanied me to the courthouse, and we both handed it to the correct clerk. A judge looked it over privately and denied, to my dismay. I am now completely convinced that DIY'ing legal representation is a fool's errand. There are so many variables in our legal system that even retaining an attorney is not a guarantee of a certain outcome. Eventually, I had to close my case to avoid throwing good money after bad. My situation has been part of ongoing difficulty for the past 20-plus years; I am confident that justice will one day be served. Tim's acumen, manner, and experience are impressive. Five-star efforts did everything they could. My hope is that I don't have to return but I certainly would if ever needed.
