Biography

Thomas Q. Keefe, III started practicing in November of 2007. Since then, he has tried nearly 40 civil and criminal cases in both state and federal court. He has argued before the Appellate Court, the 7th Circuit and the Illinois Supreme Court.

He routinely publishes journal articles and presents at seminars, and is often asked to co-counsel by other plaintiff lawyers. He was named a Rising Star and an Emerging Lawyer every year he was eligible, and was voted the top downstate lawyer under the age of 40 by his peers.  

Now comfortably north of 40, he is annually recognized as both a Leading Lawyer and by Super Lawyers, and was the recipient of the Advocate Award from the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis. He focuses his practice on catastrophic personal injury, and still tries the occasional murder case for the St. Clair County Public Defender’s Office to relax.

He is married with four kids.
