From the Lawyer (Sponsored)

Kelly McClure is the founder of the family law firm, McClure Law Group, serving clients in Dallas and throughout the country. With the knowledge and expertise gained from over 25 plus years of law experience, Kelly and her team of seasoned, high-octane attorneys work tirelessly to deliver creative and caring solutions for their clients and their loved ones, from stay-at-home parents to high-profile executives, professional athletes, and celebrities.

Kelly has the amazing ability to help couples and families artfully navigate through the complex and often divisive channels of divorce, pre- and post-marital agreements and child custody issues. Given the sensitive and generally emotional nature of these types of cases, Kelly passionately strives to help couples smoothly and successfully resolve the issues that often plague complex divorces. An avid proponent and leader of the Collaborative Law movement, Kelly works tirelessly with her clients to ensure collaboration without proceeding to court, resulting in the overall goals of reduced stress and financial burden. If, however, Collaborative Law is not an option and litigation is necessary, Kelly’s high-energy, tough, no-nonsense demeanor and dynamic presence make her a powerhouse in the courtroom.

Kelly began her legal career practicing tax law. While learning the ropes through the complicated maze of tax codes, rules and requirements, Kelly began helping victims of domestic violence. Kelly was inspired by the rewarding work of helping others and decided to shift her practice to family law. With her background in tax law, Kelly offers another dimension to her exceptional client service.

Graduating with a bachelor’s degree from Fairfield University in 1981, Kelly continued at Oxford University in England in their summer legal program and earned a Juris Doctorate from St. Mary’s University School of Law in 1984 and was admitted to the Texas Bar the same year.

In her personal life, Kelly spends time with her husband and their four sons, leading an active lifestyle and continually striving to achieve new challenges.  Kelly is an avid thrill seeker and always game for the next new adventure.
