also known as Jan Kelly, JK Law
I am a Washington-native, and am very happy to be back "home" after living in Nevada for a decade. As a practicing attorney, I am in my third career, which followed a decade in advertising sales and then another career in the environmental field. Both prior careers prepared me for my legal practice. In advertising sales, I learned to comfortably communicate with anyone and everyone and to listen to my client's needs. In the environmental and regulatory field, I learned the art of negotiating and the importance of meeting numerous and competing deadlines. Earning an Executive MBA from the Foster School of Business was a bucket list item I completed in 2015, which I believe makes me more valuable to my corporate clients.
Currently I split my time between Las Vegas and the greater Puget Sound area. My legal practice is primarily transactional in nature, and I prefer to help my clients stay out of the courtroom and avoid expensive litigation by properly preparing their contracts and other business dealings.
I fill my "spare time" with family, friends, and my beautiful dog, Joy. I volunteer for a number of charitable organizations, and I love cooking, Zumba classes and weight lifting!
Oh ... and by the way ... my clients are important to me, and I return their phone calls!

Finally an attorney I can trust...Personally and Professionally!
Jan came recommended through a friend when I was in need of an attorney for my business. I was in the process of expanding and had an out of state partner. I needed someone savvy who could research not only the laws in my state but make sure I was protected from my partner as well. Not only was Jan o...
"Jan was a classmate of mine at UNLV. Her thorough understanding of the law and insightful contributions to class discussions were a benefit to all of her classmates. I can only think that she brings the same level of enthusiasm to her profession and dedication to representing her clients."
