I specialize in the representation of the victims of serious accidents. I have obtained verdicts and settlements for my clients totalling many millions of dollars. I pride myself in handling each case personally. I began my career representing the same insurance companies that I am now handling cases against. After having served as President of both the Northern California Association of Defense Counsel and the California Defense Counsel, I have found it more rewarding representing victims of serious accidents. I have traveled to 10 Northern California counties to try cases for my clients. I am experienced in representing people who have been injured in auto accidents,vehicle-pedestrian collisions, big rig accidents, slip-and-fall and and trip-and-fall accidents, motorcycle and bicycle accidents. My experience includes the handling of all types of serious injuries, including brain injury, wrongful death, and serious back injuries and knee injuries. Give me a call at for a free consultation.

Wonderful Attorney!
I was hurt in two accidents where I broke the same leg. I initially met with another lawyer that ;has been recommended by a friend. He was a nice guy, but not Tom Keating.

Great experience with great results
I was apprehensive about finding an attorney for my accident claim and friends and family had no recommendations. Since my family had used the Freitas Law Firm I decided to check Tom Keating, Jr. out. At my consultation I was impressed when Tom told me he has represented both sides in insurance claim...
