HELPING PEOPLE RESOLVE THEIR PROBLEMS AND FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE AND FAIRNESS.

I believe in helping people.  I enjoy thinking differently and finding new ways to solve problems.  I enjoy fighting for my clients' rights, questioning convention and always treating clients fairly.  I beleive in justice and finding a just result for my clients. 

I am a good listener and provide strong counsel when needed.  I have worked at many different law firms, big and small, so I know what works well for clients and what does not.   

I am also a father of two boys and have been married to my wife for 19 years.  I enjoy spending time outside with my family, working in the yard and going to baseball games.

Estate Settlement
I live out of state and have been having problems with getting my Father's estate in California settled. Contacted Keith Davidson about representing my interests in the Estate. He took the time to discuss the matter with me and explained what he thought he could do for me. I have found his office to be available and very responsive.
