Maureen Keefe is an awesome Attorney. Maureen meets all the qualities that you would want from an Attorney representing you. She was my crimminal court Attorney. She knows all the ends and outs of the justice system. She also takes the time out to go with you to presentencing. She has loyalty and respect for you as a client and person. She has great experience representing people with a mental illness. Alot of Attorneys don't have experience in that area of the courts. She really works hard to make sure her client " DOESN'T GET SCREWED" by anyone. She makes sure you get the help that you need while you are trying to help yourself get well. You also gain a friend for life. Her faith is very strong! She doesn't tell you things that you want to hear. Very straight forward Attorney. She has common sense, very smart, and she's a very strong woman. Don't get in her way!
Ms. Keefe represents everything you DO NOT WANT IN YOUR ATTORNEY. She is slow, disorganized, negligent and above all she is INCOMPETENT. If she had the goal of intentionally sabotaging my case, she would not have been able to do a better job. She made so many mistakes and overlooked so many important case-altering details. Seeing her performance in the courtroom, where she came completely unprepared, I was forced to settle on unfavorable terms due to the complete absence of Ms. Keefe’s help and support despite having paid her legal fees in full. A few months later I went to see her with a list of her mistakes and overlooked details. I believed she owed me an explanation of why she failed me. I had to make up a reason for my visit (think billable hours!) as I could tell she did not want to see me. At that meeting, instead of owning up to her mistakes and negligence to which I had proof in my hand, Ms. Keefe came up with laughable ridiculous explanations, some of which were contradicting each other! Upon returning home, I received an email from her containing the following paragraph: "The reason I asked ahead of time what you wanted to discuss today was so that I could review my file before you got here, so that I could prepare and respond. Obviously, when you told me you wanted to ask about a modification of support, I did not review my file on the issues you raised today. It may take a while because of my schedule, but I will go back and refresh my recollection. Since you wanted to meet with me in person, I’m hoping you will do me the same service if I ask to meet you in person. But I won’t mislead you on my purpose. I will be in touch in the next few months." This email was sent to me ONE YEAR AGO, on October 6, 2019. Since then I have made numerous attempts to get in touch with Ms. Keefe but she ignores my attempts and does not communicate with me. I am still open to hear her out. If she meets with me as promised, I will revise my review. If she provides me with a reasonable explanation of why she failed my case, I will publish an apology to her. However, if this review is still up, then one should think why an attorney would lie and make a promise she does not intend to keep; why an attorney would hide from her long term client and risk having this review up if her conscience is clear?! Think about that before hiring her - do you really want to have an attorney who lacks not only competence but also integrity, honesty and decency? Ms. Keefe, if my claims are wrong, if you did not fail me, if you did not make mistakes, if you did not overlook important details, you have the power to get this review down and have me apologize to you by just proving me wrong. Why don't you take that chance?! Have some integrity, keep your promise and answer my questions. That’s the least you could do after failing my case. You failed as an attorney. Don't fail as a human being.
Hiring Ms. Keefe, from the Law Office of Maureen T. Keefe, was the biggest mistake of my life. She let me down in every possible way. Her work ethic was slow, inefficient, sloppy, disorganized, unethical and dishonest. Due to the long drawn out nature of my case, Ms. Keefe had ample time to look over every aspect of documentation that was made available to her but she failed to study any of these documents. She made so many mistakes. For example, she sent an agreement that was missing the most crucial part to the opposing party to be SIGNED. When I confronted her about this missing paragraph, she simply replied "it was a draft". A draft does not go on for signature. The missing vital component to the opposing party was a gross oversight that could have resulted in an even greater financial loss for my case. I cannot believe that an attorney that has been practicing law for 32 years could be so careless and irresponsible. She continued to overcharge me based on our initial contract and agreed upon rate. When I voiced my concerns to her on these overcharges, her response was that “if the judge orders the other party to pay the most of [your] legal expenses then it [the overcharge] won't hurt you”. Who pays Ms. Keefe’s fee should not dictate how much in overcharges Ms. Keefe invoices for, nor should this be her legal advice when confronted on addressing a discrepancy in a contracted rate. After my case was settled, I went to speak with her on my concerns on her lack of professionalism and how it hindered the outcome of my case. Her only explanation was that the final hearing went badly because "it was all political - the judge is democrat and I am republican" and "the judge is a friend of the opposing counsel". I did not inquire about why the final hearing ended in a negative outcome. My inquiry was why Ms. Keefe made so many mistakes. I have documentation that proves Ms. Keefe’s poor judgement and ill work ethic, all of which cannot be explained by someone’s political affiliation. At the end of our meeting to discuss her lack in judgement, she asked to be given time to review her notes and that she would get back to me with answers. To date, I have tried multiple attempts to reach Ms. Keefe, after providing a months’ worth of time to review my case. She is no longer answering my attempts to meet again to discuss my case. I feel that Ms. Keefe is intentionally ignoring me and does not plan to discuss my case any further. I find this to be completely unprofessional and feel that Ms. Keefe was simply using my case as a means of making a profit for herself only.
