Practice Areas: Medical Malpractice

Fewer Clients.  More Attention.  Better Results.. Many firms take on as many cases as possible, quickly losing sight of the individual client(s) and his, her of their specific losses and harms.  That has never been my philosophy of practicing law, and it never will be.  People contact medical malpractice, wrongful death and catastrophic personal injury attorneys like myself when tragedy strikes and when they need help the most.  They want assurance that they will get the personalized attention they deserve, as opposed to merely being treated like a number or simply "handled" as just one case among a multitude of cases.  The Keefe Law Firm, LLC takes on significant causes, not merely cases, and is rooted in providing personal and individualized legal representation, one cause at a time.. I am a lifelong and proud Ohioan.  I was born in Cleveland Heights and was raised both there and then later in Geauga County.  I attended college at Miami University and started as a Psychology Major in hopes of helping people better themselves.  After being exposed to a few terrific undergraduate law professors, I found my true calling in the law--a field where I could be both a counselor and an advocate.  I attended Case Western Reserve University School of Law and have been a very well-respected and practicing attorney in Ohio for the past 18 years.  I am proud to actively represent clients in Cuyagoga, Geauga, Medina, Summit, Lake, Portage, Mahoning, Ashtabula and other counties throughout Ohio.. What I have valued most throughout my legal career, and what I will continue to value the most, are the significant and ongoing relationships I have formed with my diverse clients.  To me, this is the essence of what practicing law is all about.
