I was impressed by the quickness and rapidity at which Ian Keefe (attorney) and Altman and Altman was able to respond to our urgent request for representation. They jumped on the issue, provided a clear plan of action, and then began following through on that plan in a matter of hours, clearly communicating what we could expect. Ian demonstrated significant depth for the issue and showed experience in the matter, leading to the best outcome.

Attorney Ian Keefe is quite simply the best lawyer available in the Boston area for driver's license issues, traffic court, and clerk magistrate hearings. Ian was able to get my case dismissed in one appearance in just minutes. Just as important, he instilled confidence and peace of mind leading up to hearing. I interviewed about 20 lawyers for my case it was clear that no one was better qualified or could take better care of me than Ian. I give Ian my highest recommendation.

Ian deserves more than the five stars. I hired him to help me with a restraining order. He wrote down every detail of my story and cared about every detail. He answered calls quickly and reassured the extreme anxiety I had. It was his attention to detail and real empathy that won my second attempt at an RO. He has since followed through with the state to make sure I am treated fairly in the criminal case against my abuser. He didn't have to do that. Excellent lawyer and such a nice person. You will not be sorry!

I have nothing but positive things to say about this firm. I have never needed a lawyer before however, something came up very quickly that required me to seek legal counsel in a very short amount of time. Ian, called me with in a few hours of contacting Altman & Altman and was at the courthouse with me two days after. Ian was prompt and ready to hit the floor running. My case was settled with the up most satisfaction and I couldn’t of have asked for anyone else. I tend to be a tough critic, with that said… I am pleased to have worked with Ian and his firm… I am extremely satisfied. Not one question went unanswered and Ian did more than go above and beyond with my case. Highly recommend and I appreciate all that Ian and his firm has done for me.

I was arrested in Boston just a few days before I had to move back to France, where I’m from. I was extremely lucky to have Ian Keefe as my defense attorney. From the very beginning he was very knowledgeable and professional, taking the time to answer all my questions. He also noticed how panicked I was and was very reassuring. I was impressed with how quickly he handled my case. He had very little time to prepare and still managed to advance the trial date before my flight back to France, and to have my case dismissed. On top of that, Ian was compassionate and very understanding. I can tell that he is truly passionate about helping others: because I was requested to disclose my arrest for work-related reasons, he went out of his way to provide me with extra legal advice on how to handle the situation, even two years after I was arrested. I am very grateful for the personal effort and diligence he put into my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs legal help.

I worked directly with Ian for my case, and he was great. He kept me well informed, and it was obvious he knew what he was doing. I will absolutely recommend him to Friends and Family if the need arises.

Ian was the first lawyer I spoke to when I contacted Altman and Altman. He set the bar for responsiveness, courtesy, and knowledge that has continued with each interaction. This was a heart wrenching action brought by a school nurse who uses DCF as her arm of retaliation. During her deposition, Ian skillfully uncovered the extent of her deception and the alarming number of filings she had submitted which raised questions regarding her stability and credibility. Ian, was tireless in his attention to detail, and his ability to judge a situation from all angles prevented a number of escalations. Make no mistake, Ian may provide a perspective of both sides of the situation so that you gain a different view, but he only stands on one side, and that is with his client. His altruistic dedication to his clients passes any conceivable financial motivation. We won in court, with a decision to dismiss without prejudice, my good name was restored, and the plaintiff was exposed. Ian will protect your family, and at the end of the day, that's all that matters. Thank you Ian.

My family faced a life changing situation and we turned to Altman and Altman for their help. Attorney Ian Keefe stood by me and believed in me. They were always there patiently answering my questions and concerns and those of my family and friends as well. Their expertise was proven by the successful outcome in my case. We will be forever grateful to them.
