About Christopher J
Christopher J Keating completed his undergraduate studies at Rutgers University, earning a B.A. in 2009. He later attended Seton Hall University School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 2014. Those academic steps set the stage for a legal career that blends courtroom work and professional association service.
After law school Keating moved into private practice. He established himself at Keating Law Office, LLC, where he handles a range of matters for individuals and businesses. Over the years he built a practice that engages both trial work and negotiated resolutions. He has balanced casework with an active role in the local and state bar community.
Keating holds membership in the Camden County Bar Association and the Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers of New Jersey. He is also a member of the New Jersey Association for Justice. On the state level he serves as a Trustee of the New Jersey State Bar Association, a position that places him in the middle of bar governance and policy conversations. That trustee role is a current obligation and part of his professional profile.
Colleagues describe Keating as methodical in his preparation and straightforward in court. He draws on classroom training from Seton Hall and practical experience developed in practice. His work spans criminal matters and civil disputes, reflecting the affiliations he maintains with both criminal defense and plaintiff-oriented bar groups.
At Keating Law Office, LLC, he manages client intake, case strategy and litigation planning. The office handles arraignments, pretrial motions, settlement discussions and trials when cases proceed to that stage. Keating's practice involves advising clients on their options, assembling evidence, and presenting arguments in court when necessary. He represents individuals before municipal and state tribunals and in civil forums, depending on the nature of the case.
Beyond individual cases, Keating participates in the professional life of New Jersey's legal community through meetings and committee work tied to the associations he belongs to. He has taken part in programs that bring together defense lawyers, trial attorneys and local bar members. That engagement keeps him connected to developments in procedure and advocacy across the state.
His current practice at Keating Law Office, LLC focuses on criminal defense and civil litigation.
