OUTSTANDING!

I would truly recommend Keith Douglass and Associates to handle any legal issues that fall within their realm of expertise. I have worked with Keith and Adele for almost 4 years on a very complex legal case. Their continued support and attention to detail has resulted in a very satisfying outcome... for me and my family. They always made me feel that my case was of the utmost importance and I believe I received the largest settlement possible because of their excellent efforts. Both Keith and Adele have the ability to explain how the complex legal system worked to me, and helped me to get through a very difficult time in my life.

Great service & awesome outcome! Totally recommend Keith!

Keith was great to work with as were his staff. After our initial consultation about my accident, I was given a clear explanation of Keith's strategy to get me compensation for my injury. He and his staff did a great job of working the strategy and keeping me informed of how my case was progressing.... At the end of the process, I got a sizable check. What really set Keith & his staff apart from other attorneys, in my opinion, was their ability to see me as a person and not just another case. Keith is a real person and treated me like a real person. It was really nice to talk to a lawyer and feel respected, understood, and appreciated! Keith is a great guy & he has a warm, understanding, helpful, and responsive staff. I would totally recommend Keith & his entire firm to anyone who has been seriously wronged and needs legal help to ensure that justice is served.

Keith is the best lawyer for sure!

Keith was perfect for my case. He was timely, quick to respond, great in court and I always felt like he had my back. A lot the work between us was electronically, which matched my busy lifestyle perfectly. He came recommended to me by others and I will definitely keep the recommendations going!!! Th...anks for everything!!!!!
