Keith joined Lambert Leser fresh out of law school in 1988, but personal circumstances prompted him to move to Detroit to accept a position with a large law firm in 1991. The partners at Lambert Leser made it clear that their door was always open, so Keith returned to the Bay City firm in 2003, glad to be “back home.”
Now he bases his practice from Lambert Leser’s Troy office, which opened in 2013. “I missed the positive attitude of Lambert Leser, and of our clientele,” Keith explains. “People here are friendly and appreciative – the kind of people you really want to work with and represent. Here I can truly get to know my clients, and we work together to reach their goals. Large urban firms are not structured for these kinds of close working relationships.”
Keith appreciates his relationships with his colleagues as well. “I can honestly say that I enjoy working with every person here,” he says. “They are all bright, creative thinkers – problem-solvers who care about their clients and work hard to do what’s right for them.”
