After receiving the free consultation and explaining my case to Mr Keenan, my initial assessment was that this man may be different from other attorneys I had encountered in family low. I wish I had done my due diligence, and checked the reviews everywhere I could find them, not just the glowing ones here on Google . I also should have read his contract closely, because ultimately it foreshadows what became my experience, as it all but allows him to take your money and you for a ride if he so chooses. My advice to you would be find an attorney who will take your case for a flat rate, this man will milk you, and you will likely not be happy with his sloth-like pace or results. I mean he was woefully slow! He would often set deadlines, I would not hear from him, I would have to call (of course I am being billed for those calls), there would be a new timeline set. I didn’t want to believe I was being milked so I allowed this pattern to repeat itself several times. He even apologized to me and acknowledged he had not done much on my case. His candor actually bought him even more of my time and money. 7 months later, time wasted, money wasted, I had to accept what was going on. The last straw was when he told me he had finally located the individual he needed to talk to regarding my QDRO situation. He claimed he was having problems reaching this person. Incidentally he previously led me to believe he had spent months trying to find a different “mythical” unreachable individual, that apparently was now not the person he need to talk to. Mind you, he only needed to ask this person a QUESTION for clarity, and apparently this was enough to stall my case for months. The new person he “found” It ended up being someone who’s number I had in my cell phone all along and I had talked to several times. Someone who is very easy to contact, and had been accessible to him, me and the public for that matter since day one. I had talked to this person several times, and here he was telling me he was having difficulty reaching them, and that it wouldn’t be long before he had the answer he needed. I essentially paid this man to chase my tail. This is when the lights came completely on for me, I had to face the music. I asked to terminate his representation. He could have just sent me a Motion to Withdraw (or I could’ve came by) and I could have signed it, that would have been it. No dismissal hearing was necessary, minimal time and resources spent. This wolf in sheep’s clothing did not provide me that option and I was billed one last time, even for firing him! There is a lot that the average citizen does not know about the Family Law system and unfortunately while in a very vulnerable period in our lives we have to choose legal representation navigate this extremely flawed system. Unfortunately, there are people who are waiting to take advantage of that, pretend to empathetic yet are only concerned with the money they can get from you. Your due diligence is the closest thing to protection you will have! Study the contract, ask questions, if possible get time and cost constraints added to the contract, or walk. Failure to due so will make an already difficult and stressful situation unbearable. Consider yourself warned.

I've known Jim for years and have always appreciated his knowledge of the law, his candor, and his no-nonsense approach to solving problems as they arise. I'd recommend Jim to family and friends as a great divorce and family law attorney.
