About John D.
John D. Blaisdell took a conventional path into the law that led through New England classrooms and into the federal courts. He earned a B.A. from Boston College in 1994 and completed his J.D. at Suffolk University Law School in 2001. Those years framed a steady progression from undergraduate study to professional practice.
After law school, Blaisdell entered private practice and built his career in Massachusetts. He gained admission to practice in the state and later secured authorization to appear in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. That standing allows him to handle cases at both the trial and appellate levels within the federal system, in addition to matters in state court.
Blaisdell is listed as a lawyer at The Keches Law Group, P.C., where he has been part of the firm’s attorney roster. His work there has involved litigation and courtroom practice. He brings courtroom experience to his clients and is accustomed to the procedural demands of federal and state litigation.
Over the course of his career he has maintained active membership in the State Bar of Massachusetts. That affiliation keeps him connected to developments in Massachusetts law and to the professional community that shapes practice standards in the state. He also maintains the credentials required to appear in federal trial and appellate courts in the region.
Peers and opposing counsel describe him as steady and prepared. He favors clear legal argument and attention to procedural detail. He is known to approach filings and hearings with a measured style, preferring methodical preparation over theatrical motions. That approach has been a constant as he has moved from early practice into more complex federal dockets.
Outside the courtroom Blaisdell’s background reflects a New England education followed by years of courtroom work. He has roots in the Boston legal education system and has stayed within Massachusetts jurisdictional practice throughout his career. Those local ties inform how he approaches case strategy and client communication.
As of 2026, Blaisdell continues to serve clients through The Keches Law Group, P.C. His practice covers both federal and state matters in Massachusetts and includes representation in the District of Massachusetts and in the First Circuit Court of Appeals.
