Best Lawyer I Ever Worked With

I had just been through a hip implant revision due to the first one being recalled. After my first visit with Keith, I knew I had made the right choice. There are so many ways to describe good people, all of them apply to Keith. We agreed up front that I would carry-on with my life without much int...eraction with Keith, he would just do what was necessary to get a good outcome. And good outcome it was. Good numbers, short time frame, and life goes on.

Keith is Awesome!

Keith was very professional with his assistance in a post traumatic event trial. He was both compassionate yet had an underlying tenacity with the legal process and getting the results and more than I had hoped for.

Excellent Attorney with Matching Character

I was referred to Keith by a co-worker after I was involved in a car accident. I sensed immediately in our first meeting that Keith was a man of character and ethics. Throughout the handling of my claim, Keith epitomized professional service in all aspects of the job and resolved the matter in my b...est interests. Keith went above and beyond in handling my claim and in doing so formed a professional and personal relationship that will last a lifetime. Keith is one of the most genuine and trustworthy persons I've known and I wouldn't hesitate for a instant in referring his services to anyone I know.

My experience with Keith Dozier

Keith Dozier is a respectable, strong, intelligent, caring, and trustworthy lawyer. After being injured in a car accident, I didn't know where to turn. Unfortunately in the beginning I was referred to a very awful lawyer through a family friend. This “lawyer” didn't seem to care much about my case, ...never got back to me, and didn't research my accident. I was told that because I was so young there wasn't much they could do, and they made me take care of a lot of the paperwork myself. I was hurting, stressed, depressed and confused about my injury and overwhelmed with this fraudulent insurance system. Luckily I was then referred to Keith Dozier, and even before he decided to take my case, he was able to get back my “Personal Injury Protection” that was wrongfully suspended. I was again able to seek medical attention for my Injuries. He handled the transition from my prior lawyer, took care of all of my paperwork and relieved so much of my stress and worry. I felt very confident in his ability to handle my case. I was listened to and I was always treated with professional courtesy. I received prompt responses to all of my questions, and never felt as if my case was not important to him. I was awarded the restitution that we were seeking, and I would highly recommend Keith to anyone needing legal representation.

"As a fellow lawyer, practicing in the same area of law, Keith is one of my competitors, so when I say that you can't possibly go wrong hiring him because he's one of the best, most thorough, hardest-working, and smartest lawyers in Portland, please know that I don't say it lightly. If my mother needed an injury lawyer, Keith is one of the lawyers I'd recommend."

"I have known Keith Dozier personally and professionally for almost 10 years. He is not only a great champion of justice, and a fantastic lawyer, but he also cares passionately about his clients. Even though I myself am a personal injury lawyer, if I or any of my family members were injured, I would ask him to represent me. Keith doesn't take many cases, so if you are lucky enough to have him agree to represent you, hire him!!"

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.
