About Michael Kelley
Hi. I'm Mike Kelley. I became a Personal Family Lawyer to educate and empower my clients to avoid the family conflict and brokenness that comes from ineffective estate planning that ends up in court. I felt a calling to help clients make the right decisions in advance to prevent those outcomes.
I'm here to guide clients, especially families with minor children, through the often-confusing maze of financial and legal decisions to create plans that ensure the well-being of their families. Whether you are married or single, with a traditional family or blended one, just starting out or looking back on a life well-lived, I will help you to craft a plan that achieves your goals for your loved ones today and for years to come.
I graduated in the top of my law school class from Faulkner University in 2008, then joined the prestigious law firm Haskell, Slaughter, Young & Rediker as a civil litigator. In 2013, I started my own firm, focusing on estate planning, probate estate administration, and personal injury cases. I have experience both advising personal representatives of estates and have administered trusts and estates myself in Alabama and Montana.
I love educating my community on what will happen when someone passes away at the several different levels of estate planning. I find that most clients have just never given it much thought and really have an eye-opening experience when we meet.
Most importantly I am a husband to Traci and proud father of Mikey and Luke.

What makes PFL lawyers different?
-
How you hire us.
We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
-
How we plan.
We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
-
What we protect.
Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
-
What you see.
Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
-
How we deliver.
Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
-
How our plans work.
One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
