I have been working as a lawyer since 1989, and began my family law career in 1991 after leaving the Nueces County District Attorney's Office where I was a felony prosecutor. My philosophy is to help families obtain a fresh start, without creating irreparable harm. Specifically, I like to teach my clients about the law so they can be active and informed in their settlements. I know they will most likely have a relationship with their former spouse, especially where children are concerned. I know if everyone is participates and is in agreement with the outcome, there are fewer ackward moments after the divorce is final. Afterall, you don't stop being parents even when the kids turn 18. I know from personal experience as I am a mother (son born 1991) and step mother (daughter born 1991).
However, if my opposing counsel or opposing party throws the first punch, I am in full offense mode, ready to defend my clients and go to battle for them. I just prefer that to be the last resort, not the first.
I wrote a column in the society page of the Caller-Times for three years and am active in the community, most currently as a Clown Who Cares, volunteering at Driscoll Children's Hospital each month.

Excellent service!
The office of the AG made a mistake in calculating my child support and they were unwilling to fix it. They were having me pay extra for medical support while having proof that I have been providing medical insurance for years. I was not able to be there since I live over 250 miles away but my ca...

AOG review & modification
I hired Kelly for a child support review and a few years later for a modification. She was very hands on, her office was very fast about updating me and returning calls and emails. Best of all she was able to make the process stress free and I was very happy with the results. A ...

Best in Corpus
Recently had the pleasure of using Kelly. She was the second family lawyer we used. The first one led us down the wrong path. Originally we had gone to Kelly to help with joint custody of our grandchildren along with our daughter. Made the mistake of going to court without Kelly. All we had to do was...

Best lawyer I know
Nothing but great things can be said about my lawyer experience and mediation experience. I was explained everything and briefed properly until the date of my mediation. Kelly and her staff were courteous and considerate of all issues and questions pertaining to my child support modification. Kelly ...
"I've had a few cases with Kelly. She is extremely efficient, business-like and professional, which is a stark contrast to the generally laid-back, "whenever" attitude prevalent in this area. She comes on strong but that's ok and I have recommended her to others."
"I endorse this lawyer. Kelly is hard working, intelligent and tough. Very skilled and in the courthouse daily."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Kelly Koch for a number of years. We have practied together in the area of Family Law. Sometimes we are aligned in a case, and sometimes we are opposed. In any case scenario, I have been able to work with Kelly to resolve the case, to the best possible conclusion. She continues to be amenable and approachable. I look forward to working with her. If any given case requires litigation, she is a well seasoned trial advocate who can stand the ground for her clients."
"Kelly served as local counsel on several cases with me. She knows family law thoroughly and is a great litigator and mediator. She is my go to person in the Corpus Christi area."
