As one of the Senior Partners at Infinity Wealth Management, LLC, we often need legal work done for our clients. Whether its a Buy/Sell agreement for a business or a living trust for a family, Kerry and his team always come through with quality work. They spend the time, answer the questions, and provide the guidance needed to get things handled right. That takes a load off of me and my team. It allows me to focus on my part. Its hard to find integrity these days. Kerry and the associates at Lavelle Law have it. I would recommend them to anyone.
I have used legal services from Kerry Lavelle on a number of occasions. He has handled real estate closings, tax issues, estate planning and other matters for me and my family. in ever case I have received excellent service, always on a timely manner and at fair rates. I appreciate the way in which Lavelle Law listens to me before starting down any path and the fact that they explain options and set expectations for the process. In addition to the legal services, I also respect Kerry and his firm for their significant commitment to the community and those in need. They set a great example for all businesses to follow.
As a practicing attorney, and a founding partner of a law firm that bears my name, I take an especially focused view of serving clients. While certain areas of law can be complex, what matters most in dealing with any legal case is hard work, and meeting the needs of our clients. Before we begin any work, whether in the office, in a meeting, a hearing, or the courtroom, it is imperative that we understand your needs, concerns, and all aspects of your case. I believe that our hard work yields categorical preparedness. For this reason, I, and all of our attorneys, take time to meet with you, listen to your concerns, and review the options available to you. Once we have a course of action, I assure you that you cannot find another attorney who will work harder and be more thorough, on your behalf. These are the traits that make for exceptional lawyering.
I also believe that as a business owner, I have a responsibility to commit to my local community, and participate fully in the events that are important to the residents who live and work here. Lavelle Law always has, and always will be, a willing and active contributor to the overall needs of our local community and the people and organizations that make it so vibrant and successful.

Expert Advice, Friendly, Knowledgable, Respectful
My firm, Infinity Wealth Management, LLC and I have been working with Lavelle Law for a number of years. We have always received the highest quality service. Their attorneys and staff are very accommodating and easy to talk with. Although much of our immediate needs are centered around estate planning, we have sent clients and friends to Lavelle Law for other legal matters. They have a strong stable of knowledgable attorneys that cover the spectrum of legal concerns. I highly recommend Lavelle Law and appreciate the friendships that have developed throughout the years.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer
"It has been my privilege to work for Kerry's firm for the last 5 years. Kerry's overall knowledge of tax law, whether it applies to income tax issues or estate planning taxation issues is unparalleled. Working in these two areas, among others, permits Kerry to do one of the things our firm is founded on: helping individuals and small businesses have exceptional, but affordable, legal assistance to level the legal playing field. It is in this area, looking out for his clients' best interests, that Kerry truly excels. His focus on the well-being of his clients, whether legal, financial, or personal, sets him apart from other tax attorneys. Put another way, a client is not a transaction to Kerry - each client is a person, or corporate entity, with real problems, and Kerry, and the rest of us through his example, treat each and every client with the courtesy and respect they deserve. I cannot recommend Kerry highly enough - not just as a lawyer, but as a human being."
