About Patrick
Biography
Dallas divorce attorney Patrick J. Kelly practices family law because of the opportunity it gives him to work with people during the difficult time of a divorce and protect their rights.
“Nothing is more important than being a good parent,” Mr. Kelly said, “and nothing is more fulfilling than assisting clients in doing what is in the best interests of their children.”
Mr. Kelly applies the same work ethic and determination to the practice of law that he has practiced his whole life and strives to provide clients with high quality, personal, and cost-effective legal services.
In his first family law trial, Mr. Kelly prevailed, winning primary custody for a single father. Since then, he has remained a passionate advocate for his clients and works well with all parties to get the best possible outcome.
“I have a goal-oriented and solution-focused approach, which enables me to effectively manage both the emotional and financial cost of divorce,” he said. “This approach, coupled with my determination to do the best possible job, helps my clients achieve the most favorable results.”
