Keyes & Donnellan began more than forty years ago, when Daniel M. Keyes, Junior and Edward Donnellan set up practice right around the corner from where the office stands today. Though the practice has evolved over the years from primarily personal injury and eminent domain litigation to include a comprehensive range of legal activity in civil and criminal cases, our goals have remained the same.
We strive to provide the most professional legal counsel possible to our clients, maintaining rigorous standards of integrity and performance.
Dedication and personal involvement on the part of each one of us ensures that quality of performance for every client we work with, in every kind of law we practice.
