About

After graduating from Harvard College and Boston College Law School, I have practiced law since 1974 - over 40 years. Since 1994 I have focused on Social Security Disability law. We have handled over 12,000 Social Security Disability cases in Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.  When my father developed severe rheumatoid arthritis he was forced to discontinue his career as a civil engineer, even while still trying to pay for college tuitions. That illness and its affect on my Dad's life and our family opened a window for me - showing clearly the day to day hardships of loss of income, the daily pain from the illness itself, and loss of prestige and satisfaction that goes along with no longer being able to work at the profession or job that you are trained to do. When we are able to get a client the Social Security benefits they deserve, we know it does not put them back to where they were, but it provides monthly income, usually with back pay, and health insurance. Our attorneys and paralegals know what to do, and it is the way that we can help. And we are happy to help!My wife Patti and I have been raising a large family - we have eleven children. All eleven of the children have graduated from college as of May, 2017. Six of the children are married. See photo below of Patti and me with all the children and all their spouses, the photo where I have the bright pink tie. We have one child in Houston, one child in San Francisco, one in Sacramento, one in Minnesotta, one in New York City, one in London, England, one in Rome, Italy. So far, we have 24 grandchildren. Patti and I are involved with Family Enrichment of Massachusetts, offering case study method courses to married couples who wish to improve their skills as parents or as spouses, with an acheivable goal to improve and enrich family life.

My first contact with the firm put me at ease and I was certain they were able to fully handle my case to the end. John and his staff are knowledgable, always available, and right on top of every step that needs to be done. When you call, someone always answers. I appreciate that. Fees are reasonable, their main purpose is to help you win your case, and they truly understand what you are going through. Caring, compassionate and kind are just a few words that come to mind when working with them. They know the system and prepare your case like it was their own family. Thank you John Keefe for being on my side!

John's firm did an excellent job representing me in my fight for SSDI. I ultimately won my case and would definitely recommend his firm for representation.

John Keefe was an excellent lawyer. He always and kept me updated with my case and mainly did all the paperwork. And he prepared me before we went in front of the judge in court.

Our lawyer from John O'Keefe, was excellent Her name is Liliana Mangiafico. Both Liliana and the entire firm kept us informed and we very prepared for our hearing. Liliana guided us through the process and provide both professional and emotional support. The SS process is very difficult and very emotional - This firm made a very difficult time easier. And in the end all was favorable for our case!

His office was very fast to get any information from me after applying on line. Very polite staff. The paperwork was very well marked as to where to sign. Some of the paperwork was confusing when sent to fill out but again the staff was helpful when calling to try to explain whatever paper work I may have been confused with. when it came to meeting the lawyer there was none and there were a lot of questions that I would have liked to ask the staff if I had at least met them once. When it came to having to go to court the paperwork was very intimidating. It gave me more questions then it answered. A lot of the information was not relevant to my case and I was confused by this. The time given after seeing the judge was three times as long as I was told it would be until I heard from them. During this time I did not hear a word from his office unless I called them to see where I stood. I have Mostly good comments for them over all.

Keefe helped me when I was disabled for many years but had finally lost my job over my disability. They took all of my info and handled everything for me. If you are truly disabled then I highly recommend Keefe Disability Law.
