Keith represented my husband Frank Madriaga his case was a high profile case in spite of the long wait Mr. Rutman showed out in court he is very committed into giving his clients a great representation my husband is very happy with all his work he gave into his case. And he highly recommends Mr.Rutman he is well worth waiting on. I say this because my husband had been sitting in jail not knowing what to expect but Mr.Rutman had prior commitments and when he goes to trial for you he gives his all. He was worth the wait!!! Thank you from us both you were amazing!!

I highly recommend Keith Rutman. He is knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and truly cares about his clients. He takes the time to listen, explain things clearly, and makes even the most stressful situations feel much more manageable. His integrity, attention to detail, and dedication are evident in everything he does. He makes his clients feel respected, well-informed, and confident that matters were in excellent hands. If you’re looking for an attorney who is compassionate, trustworthy, and committed to providing outstanding service, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Keith Rutman.

When someone is facing 30 years to life, communication and transparency should be a priority. Instead, this attorney repeatedly failed to discuss or even properly show the evidence being used against his client, leaving him constantly uninformed about the status of his own case. Questions were dismissed rather than answered, and updates were minimal to nonexistent. What was most concerning was the complete lack of urgency and professionalism shown throughout the process, including statements such as “I’m not the one going to jail.” If your freedom is on the line, you deserve an attorney who is prepared, communicative, and genuinely willing to fight for you. Based on this experience, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for representation.

While I Did experience what I see others site as " professional " The experience that received though was Very clouded with a Very " Leftis t " perspective ,regarding My need , He is TOTALLY , ( And probably predictably ) First and Formost , ALL about money , Profit , or him, NOT Justice for the rights taken away by governance , ONLY His greed was what he was Fist and All about, spent an Inordinant amount of time basting me for my history in the criminal.Justice system rather than really looking very hard at what was just done wrong to me.By a branch of governance, clearly implying that I had it coming because of my record which I find extremely offensive.So you take your chances
