Bill Keating's expertise is plaintiff’s personal injury and wrongful death litigation in Colorado and the West. His focus is complex, catastrophic injury matters including products liability, fire and explosions, trucking and auto collisions, automotive defects, construction accidents, and insurance bad faith. In addition to in-depth investigations and diligent commitment to clients in the midst of sudden catastrophe, Bill leads the firm’s efforts to promote change for safer products and workplaces.
A co-founder of the firm, Bill has been listed in the Best Lawyers of America for more than 17 years. His strong work ethic and a love of the law and working with people has resulted in many honors including the invitations to the International Academy of Trial Lawyers, whose membership is limited to 500 Fellows in the United States and the American College of Trial Lawyers – representing less than the top one percent of lawyers in Colorado, and the U.S.
Bill has also been elected to membership in the International Society of Barristers, the American Board of Trial Advocates, and the Academy of Catastrophic Injury Attorneys. In 2008 he was again selected by Colorado attorneys for inclusion in Colorado Super Lawyers list, and this year included among the Top 10 Colorado Super Lawyers.
