Attorney Brian McKeen Discusses Decision to Blog
My name is Brian McKeen, and I am proud to be the President of McKeen & Associates, P.C.; Michigan's leading medical malpractice firm. I began my practice in 1983, and specialize in Birth Injuries, and Medical Malpractice cases. When families are hurt by medical malpractice, hospitals and the insurance companies will spare no expense to avoid liability. Our job is to fight the insurance companies and achieve justice for our clients. With eight associate attorneys and an office staff of nearly 20 paralegals, nurses, investigators, law clerks and administrative assistants, we have achieved justice for families whose lives have been irreversibly changed by needless preventable medical errors.
We have achieved unparalleled success in Michigan malpractice litigation. I have been fortunate to establish the records for the largest jury verdict in a medical malpractice case in Michigan, and to then subsequently break my own record with the $55 million dollar verdict in Wade v Henry Ford Health Systems. The Wade verdict is still the largest verdict in a Michigan medical malpractice case. In four of the past eight years, I have obtained the largest verdict of the year in the state of Michigan , and during that time I was the only medical malpractice attorney to have the top verdict of the year.
The Detroit Free Press has labeled me as "Michigan's Most Winning Medical Malpractice Attorney". I have received numerous accolades including Michigan Lawyers' Weekly's "Lawyer of the Year", and Superlawyers' Top 100 Lawyers in Michigan. Recently, I was inducted into the Inner Circle of Advocates, an invitation limited to 100 of the top personal injury attorneys in America.
McKeen & Associates, P.C. has represented families not only in Michigan but around the United States as well. We do not advertise to the general public. Our clients are most often referred to us by other attorneys who hear of and respect our abilities to obtain justice for our clients.
We have distinguished ourselves as a group of attorneys who have the knowledge and experience, and will dig deeper to find the answers and fight harder and more successfully than any other firm.
We have the resources, the will and the expertise to stand toe-to-toe with doctors, hospitals and insurance companies and emerge victorious.
We have developed this blog as a way of communicating with interested members of the public on topics of interest in medical malpractice litigation. I hope that you will find this blog to be a useful and informative resource.

Topic: Why Blog?
When I decided to start writing a blog, I first had to decide the topics that I wanted write about. I looked at my options, and decided to stay with topics that are close-to-home and of personal importance to me and my work.
