Burke Keaty has spent his entire career helping injured victims and their families hold wrongdoers responsible for the harms they cause. Burke has successfully resolved hundreds of cases on behalf of clients injured in car, motorcycle, bus, and tractor-trailer collisions, as well as pedestrians and bicyclists harmed by others on the roadway.
