much of his practice to addressing litigation problems through

and narrower measures, such as laws establishing sensible limits on
appeal bonds.

chairs ATRA's Tort Reform Agenda Committee. In addition to his extensive
involvement in civil justice reform and other federal and state
legislation, Keith litigates tort and complex insurance disputes, and he
