"Received Mr. Keates as my court appointed attorney and he did a wonderful job. Worked with me and my legal situation and was able to get my cases dismissed and discharged. Mr. Keates was able to get my cases handled with exceptional precision and was surely satisfied with his results. Would recommend Mr. Keates immediately. Thank you again."

"I have a friend in jail. I reached out to attorney Keates and he promptly returned the call. And was able to bring me up to speed as to the disposition of my friend's case. Let me know that he would be meeting with my friend in jail even though I have few and far between conversations with this person, just because the nature of being able to contact or call people there. It's dicey. And they make it impossible to do anything. But this lawyer has been helpful and prompt and taking care of my friends needs given the circumstances. Highly recommend him!"

"How can I vote for Austin's best?? If you are looking to hire a criminal attorney please believe every single one of the positive reviews. He addresses the single negative review. I can't write a review better than all the others. Thank you so much Robert."
