Telling YOUR story in a persuasive way

Marty grew up in Great Bend, Kansas, where he watched his dad and Uncles practice law the old fashioned way: meeting with clients, and listening to their story of what happened.

Every argument for justice is a story. Coming from an Irish-American family where storytelling was a part of the culture, this habit of turning arguments into compelling narratives comes easy for Marty.

Your story deserves to be told in a strategic, compelling way. Every criminal case or lawsuit is a morality play, where your story has to be told just so.

Marty has not only used storytelling in court for 40 years as a lawyer, he has written numerous articles about Kansas history. Marty published a book this year entitled BONDURANT: The Spy Who Cracked Gandhi’s Code, available on Amazon.

As a scholar, Marty digs deep, researching the facts and law of a case. As a storyteller, he crafts a narrative to explain your unique case. Curiosity is a signature trait of Keenans. During client interview Keenan tries to learn more about you and your legal situation. Helping people is what his practice is about.

Marty had the rare good fortune to practice law with his dad, Larry E. Keenan (right) and his Uncle Robert P. Keenan in Great Bend, KS. He learned a lot from them. The thing is, a lawyer should tell you not only what you can do, but whether you should. That’s discretion, that’s wisdom. Having three Uncles and three sibling who are lawyers helps, because you learn things.
A lawyer has a duty not only to advocate for you, but to counsel you privately about the right approach. Knowledge of human nature, personalties, judges and life in general are important.

Marty’s brother Tim and his niece Rachel Keenan hold down the flagship Keenan Law Firm in Great Bend.
