Kevin O'Keefe
Kevin O'Keefe's Real Lawyers Have Blogs is the leading source of information and commentary on the use of blogs, RSS, and social media for the marketing of law firms.
Kevin, President of LexBlog, Inc., was a trial lawyer for 17 years. Practicing law in rural Wisconsin, he successfully marketed his own law firm on the Internet in a such a positive way that USA Today said "If O'Keefe isn't careful, he may wind up giving lawyers a good name.
Prior to LexBlog, Kevin founded Prairielaw.com, an online law community for consumers and small businesspeople, later acquired by LexisNexis and now incorporated into Martindale-Hubbell's lawyers.com. He then served as a VP of Business Development of LexisNexis' Martindale-Hubbell.
While Kevin practiced law, he was a sustaining member of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America and a board member of his state's trial lawyers association.
