A leader in medical malpractice and birth injury litigation, Keith was recently recognized as one of the Top 500 Lawyers in American by Lawdragon.
In 2019, Keith was part of the trial team that obtained what is believed to be the largest verdict in a medical malpractice case in the history of the United States of America - a $229 million dollar verdict against Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center for a child who was injured at birth and suffers cerebral palsy as a result.
Prior to that, Keith was instrumental in the firm obtaining three of the four largest verdicts in medical malpractice cases in Maryland history – a $55 million dollar verdict against Johns Hopkins Hospital (June 2012), a $21 million dollar verdict against Harbor Hospital (July 2012), and a $15.6 million dollar verdict against a nurse midwife and a hospital in Prince George’s County, Maryland (May 2013).
Since joining WVFO, Keith has been involved in over 50 cases resulting in a settlement or verdict in excess of $3,000,, including numerous settlements and verdicts over $5,000, and $10,000,.

Keith earned his bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of Rhode Island in 2002. In 2006, he earned his juris doctorate degree from the University of Baltimore. His first attorney position was with a national Plaintiffs firm where he was immersed in the practice of representing children who suffered catastrophic brain injury due to medical error. In 2008, Keith joined a boutique civil defense firm as a litigation associate where he represented doctors, nurses, hospitals and other health care professionals in defending claims of medical negligence. While his time on the defense side proved educational, Keith quickly realized that his true passion was representing Plaintiffs. He joined WVFO in 2009 where he has exclusively represented victims of medical malpractice and catastrophic injury.
