Mr. Keating takes a holistic and hands on approach to all of his cases, and this is especially true for his family law clients.

This includes the preparation, analysis, and negotiation of numerous purchase agreement transactions, franchise agreements, buy-sell agreements, independent contractor and employment contracts, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements, commercial leases, personal guarantees, and other related documents.  His business clientele includes, but is not limited to, restaurants, car dealerships, construction contractors, photographers, and liquor stores.  He has formed several non-profit corporations and has helped each of them apply for and achieve 501(c)(3) federal tax-exempt status with the Internal Revenue Service.
