William P. Kealey

A seasoned and effective advocate for our business dispute

Our company recently faced a complex contract dispute with a former supplier that threatened to disrupt our operations. We engaged William Kealey of Stuart & Branigin based on his long-standing reputation in the Lafayette area. His 36 years of experience, particularly the recognition in Commercial Litigation, was immediately evident. He didn't just recite legal principles; he drew on a deep well of practical knowledge, likely honed since his Stanford J.D. days, to outline a clear and strategic path forward. Mr. Kealey was exceptionally thorough in his analysis of our contractual documents and correspondence, anticipating the other side's arguments before they were even made. His counsel during settlement negotiations was measured and sharp, ultimately securing a resolution that protected our interests without the need for a protracted court battle. The only minor critique would be that, given his undoubtedly busy caseload, there were a couple of instances where follow-up responses took a bit longer than we'd hoped. However, when we did connect, his attention was completely undivided. For any business in Indiana navigating commercial legal challenges, William Kealey provides a formidable combination of intellectual rigor and pragmatic, results-oriented representation.
