I certainly Recommend Keith Backman as an attorney

Keith and his staff was very responsive, professional and knowledgeable throughout the divorce proceedings. Keith was very attentive and personal during the entire process. Keith will talk you through the entire process and advise if necessary. You certainly want Keith as your team leader.. Keith'...s comportment, and amiable demeanor certainly merits note. Keith's positiveness and aggressive attitude is what you need as an attorney. Thanks Keith

Dedicated, Honest, very Knowledgeable

I was in my very lengthy divorce process. From the hard work and constant dedication my Atty. was very supportive, and always got what I wanted when we went to court. He is very respected with the court's and brought the decision to be what I wanted.He is a very well respected and wonderful Attorney.... His paralegal works very hard, and with direct communication was able to get me help with all questions I needed answered. He is very hard working to get what you want and is smart, kind, and always gave me great advice in all situations in my divorce. EVERYONE should have Atty.Keith Backman represent them.

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.
