"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known attorney Keenan since 2001. I recently had the opportunity to work with him on a multi- jurisdictional estate planning matter involving a considerable estate with many beneficiaries in different locales. Attorney Keenan's grasp of the complexity and delicate nature of the matter impressed me tremendously, and that is not easy to do."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
