Kelly E. Duford's Lawyer Endorsements
"Kelly is super passionate about her clients. She is the first person I think of when I need a business law attorney. She is smart, willing to think outside the box, and will do whatever it takes to meet the needs of her clients."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Kelly has a rare blend of business/transactional and litigation experience that make her truly excellent at what she does. Many transactional attorneys lack litigation experience, so when the going gets tough (as it often does), they end up having to refer you out to a litigator. This costs you money as the litigator has to get up to speed on your file. It's also something that can be used against you in negotiations. The other side has to know you have the goods to back up your position, or you will not get the best deal possible. Kelly will tell it to you straight, but will take a nuanced approach with opposing counsel depending on whether you are seeking a long-lasting business relationship or looking to exit a business with the best deal in hand."
