My name is Blake Keeffe. I've been a Master Certified Technician for Harley-Davidson for the last ten years. I've been riding motorcycles for closing on 20 years. October 9th, 2019, I was on my way home from work and a kid on his cell phone made an illegal U-turn in front of me and I ended up t-boning him at 50 miles an hour.

We were in the hospital for a total of about a month. It was a bad deal. They weren't sure if I was going to walk again. Both SI joints in my back were broken and had to be bolted shut. The whole front of my pelvic girdle had to be bolted shut. Internal bleeding, blood transfusions, nerve damage, and at the time my fiancé and I were scheduled to get married while I was in the hospital, and we weren't really sure what our life would look like moving forward. It was tough emotionally for her mostly.

I was out for about a month but during this, we were referred, in fact, the night of the accident we were referred to Mike Nysather through the motorcycle community and he stepped in and the communication he had right out of the gate to my wife gave her a lot of strength and really freed up the ability for her to focus on my physical recovery. He was coming down to my house, which is almost an hour away from his office. He talked me through the steps moving forward and he gave us the utmost amount of confidence in ourselves and allowed us the freedom to kind of focus on ourselves.

In a lot of ways, he became part of our family during those weeks and continues to be and it's been almost two years. The amount of compassion and friendliness and real joy that he has been able to bring to our lives through this horrendous situation has elevated the entire experience to the point where it's bearable and we know things are going to be okay.

I can’t even explain what happened. Our whole lives changed in a matter of minutes. My husband and I were taking a drive, we were in the intersection and this car turned in front of us and we collided. My husband went unconscious; they called two ambulances.

I've never been in an accident before, so it was really traumatizing to me and to my husband and thank God for my referral to call Wade & Nysather because from that point on, the burden was lifted off me. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Any needs we had, they addressed them instantly. We had a rental car. We had a chiropractor set up.

Their whole team did everything for us. They took care of just, everything. I don't know how we would’ve ever gotten through this trauma. That kind of stress at our age it's even doubled. I just wish everybody could have that same kind of experience as I experienced. They made me always feel like I was number one; a priority with them. I just wasn’t just a number or a person.

I started as a Pre-Litigation paralegal. I handled cases from the beginning until settling the claim while also doing a little bit of everything else such as handling the property damage, bodily injury, ordering records and bills, sending the demands, assisting the attorneys with sending negotiation letters, all the way to signing out the client.

Our phones are open 24/7 and I am the person who handles the calls from 5-8pm during those after hours. Those calls are transferred to a cell phone, which comes directly to me. Every case is different. Every person has a story. We have cases that are smaller, cases that are bigger and we try to help as much as we can with every case we get. We try to put the same amount of attention to a smaller case as we would to a bigger cause. We try to make the clients feel comfortable throughout the process because it is extremely stressful from the very beginning. I think most clients are initially concerned about their vehicle more than their injuries because they are now left without a vehicle to go to work, school, or anywhere else and that is where we come in.

We are here to help the client through the whole process from start to finish. Once we take over the case, clients know they can call us for anything at any time. They no longer have to worry about speaking with insurance companies, investigators, adjusters, and any additional third parties because we take care of everything from the day they sign on with us. Our ultimate goal is to help the client in the best way possible and make their recovery process less stressful.

I actually worked for insurance companies. I was in an automobile accident myself when I was working at a restaurant several, several years ago and while I was going through that process, I had a friend that was an insurance adjuster and so I started off as a claims assistant and within about a year I was a full-on bodily injury adjuster. So, when our cases that maybe will not settle in you know, pre-litigation so when we have to take it to court then it gets moved to me and so I assist the attorneys with every you know, everything else that they need me to do. I still handle the claims so I do have that background but what I bring to it is that I’m able to tell people like I know what the insurance company is going to look at, I know what they're going to accept and even though they're having a lot of changes over the last few years, it’s relatively what they will accept has not changed, that’s pretty standard.

Typically, once you get to litigation you are in the last phase. The benefit is since I am pre-litigation as well, I do, you may have me from start to finish so people tend to get pretty comfortable with the paralegals. So, when you have to pass it off to somebody you don’t know that is the one part of my job that can make it difficult because you want to make sure that they feel as comfortable as possible. I know what people's fears are and I know how overwhelming it is to have to make phone calls have to deal with everything. So, I do have that background and the knowledge of that because I do feel for people and I understand that it stinks to have to go through this and not knowing what you’re doing and thinking that the insurance company is going to take advantage of you. We are a family here.

We spend a lot of time together, so we all work very well together and it's all about support. I mean I’ve been here for over 13 years so obviously they make me feel very comfortable so it makes me feel very comfortable with our clients and be able to, you know let them know that we are on your side and we’re here to help you in any way that we can. We’ve got cases that have seemed so difficult and that we've had to fight from the beginning, and we get to the end. Once we get the client their settlement and they’re really happy with it, that's probably the best part because then you can just breathe and be like okay, we worked really hard on this and we got a really good result, and the client is happy.

The insurance web so to speak is very convoluted, it's very confusing and that’s probably, honestly 90% of my job is to try and help them understand what's going on with everything because a lot of our clients get very overwhelmed. I do feel I connect with a lot of our clients and so when they do come in, they’re very grateful. I really like when the clients obviously are thriving and make improvements because sometimes in these accidents, they’re long-lasting and any kind of progress that they can make is... it's great to see, absolutely. Just being able to make someone's day positive is why we do this.

Our team has the knowledge and background in negotiating with insurance adjusters....

It is really about the clients. I think a lot of attorneys are in this line of work for the money, the prestige and everything else. We started this practice because clients were hurt and they did not understand how to recover, how to get paid for their injuries, what to do or how to seek medical treatment. In some cases, clients do not even have health insurance and do not know whether or not they even have options. So, it is really the empathy for the clients that gets me out of bed in the morning because I think we base this firm on caring for the clients and their needs. We try to strive for one, the customer service, which is the communication and education with a client and two, guiding them through the process itself.

You can be a very good attorney but if the clients do not know what you are doing, why you are doing it, then it will not be a good relationship between the client and the attorney from the beginning. We have clients that pop in from time to time that we have not had a case with for over ten, fifteen even twenty years and it is a good feeling because I think that this is where we are different as a law firm. It is not just a dollar sign that we work for. It is not just a “get the work done and go home” for us. It is more of a matter of caring, compassion and we try to give the clients that comfort level that they can call us at any time- day or night, and we will be there just like family.

We will answer. We will lead them through. We will tell them upfront before they even sign on as a client exactly what we are going to be able to do for them or what we will not be able to do. We cannot promise them an amount or a settlement because a lot of that is unknown at that time, but we will certainly tell them exactly how everything will play out throughout the process. It is not about us. It is about the client and what is best for them.

I think with a lot of cases when people first call, they are worried that we are going to try to sell them on something and obviously we would like to work for them but that is not the main point, the main point is to educate them. There is a lot coming at them from all directions whether it is insurance companies calling them wanting to settle. ‘Who’s going to pay for my rental car? Who’s going to pay for my hospital bills?’ It is a lot of things hitting at one time and really our whole idea is just to educate them on the process and if they want to hire us, fantastic. If not, at least they are going to get a lot of good information. Law firms often advertise ‘We will get you half a million dollars’ and obviously the settlement is an important part of the case but there’s more to it- there is a process to get to that settlement. The whole point of us being here is to lead, guide and navigate clients both, financially and medically. Our goal with each case is to make sure that the client gets the best results possible.
So, it is not just about the settlement, it is about the process. The law for the most part does not change with accident cases. Insurance companies on the other hand, change the way they operate and that is something we obviously like to stay ahead of the curve by making sure that we are advising our clients properly. I think we can advocate for our clients, and I think in large part, that is based on the fact that our paralegals and staff, including the attorneys, have worked for insurance companies so they understand the other side. The important part of that is keeping abreast of what is going on in the insurance industry because that is who we are working with on a daily basis. We have been in practice as a law firm for over 27 years and we’ve kind of kept to our core principles of keeping our law firm small to be able to be attentive to each client and making sure that each client is taken care of. I’ve always been of the belief that if we can help somebody- even if they don’t hire us, if we can help them answer their questions, be there as a sounding board, in the end that comes around and that’s worked pretty well over 27 years.

I started off as a receptionist. I did it for two years or so and now I'm actually a marketing and intake specialist. I think that understanding the client is very important and I think that really getting to know the person and you know, understanding their needs is huge for this company. You know, one of our biggest priorities is you know, is prioritizing the client and their needs so it is very important in my opinion to establish that connection, that relationship with the client to ensure that you have their trust and likewise.

They’re in distress and they just don't know what to do and they need steps, and they don't know if calling an attorney is the right path. They don't know if it's something they should even be doing. So, I think it definitely is important for you know, us to really make sure that the client is feeling safe and trusted and welcomed into our office.

My role as a receptionist definitely, one of my priorities I should say was definitely to make the client feel welcomed and I know typically when people hear attorneys, they are a bit intimidated as you said so I think it's important for me, as the receptionist to really welcome that client and let them know, you know this isn't just another attorney that you're walking into.

This is more of a family and we are willing to help you. Communication is key especially here at our offices. Dealing with clients, you know wanting statuses on their cases. It’s very important to always communicate with clients, you know. I feel like what differs us from other law firms is that we always have that communication with clients. Even though you just called this morning and you're calling again you will gladly put you through to the paralegal or the attorney, whoever it is that you need to speak with. We like to have that one-on-one relationship with our clients. We know that the clients they may have a lot of questions coming into our law firm or you know, when they have that initial accident. We understand that you guys may not know what the process is. We've been doing this for 27 years, so we are here to serve you and answer all of your questions.

I wanted to work more for an individual as opposed to a large corporation after 8 years of answering to insurance companies, adjusters, those types of things can be kind of frustrating at times. You do have a client but really who you're answering to and helping is the insurance company and I thought on the plaintiff side, the side that I'm doing now you have more person-to-person interaction and you actually see that you're helping a person.

I absolutely feel like I'm standing up for the little guy, the insurance companies are multibillion-dollar corporations. When they payout on a claim, it doesn't matter to them. I think sometimes clients are coming in having been in an accident thinking that if I get a lawyer is a lawyer going to take up all my settlement money. Here, you know, our clients will attest to we oftentimes reduce our fees in order to make sure that we never take more than a client.

So, I do hear stories with other attorneys where people are telling me that hey, this attorney actually made more from a case than I made and that'll never happen here. I think just in life in general when you're working to help someone else the work’s much more rewarding and fun as opposed to when you're doing it for yourself. So, I think that that's kind of one of the great aspects of the job is when you're fighting and working for somebody else to make their lives better the job becomes fun, rewarding, meaningful. When you do it for yourself that just doesn't happen.

We will fight for you until we win!*
