Practice Description
Raised in Plano and now living in Prosper, Kelly Hurt has always called North Texas home. She has made a name for herself in Collin County and surrounding counties as a passionate family law attorney who minimizes conflict and works tirelessly for the best interest of her clients and their children. Having two nine year old sons who were born extremely prematurely, Kelly can empathize with the complex issues facing parents in today’s ever-changing, post-pandemic world. She believes the family still exists, albeit differently, after a divorce where children are involved, and that belief guides Kelly in her efforts to avoid unnecessary collateral damage during the parents’ divorce.
Kelly’s undergraduate education in business management makes her uniquely qualified to deal with the financial issues that arise in cases with significant property. In her free time, Kelly enjoys spending time with her neighbors, playing football with her kids, and being outdoors.
Representative Experience
Kelly Hurt is the best family lawyer
The best kind of lawyer is a busy lawyer and Kelly is certainly that. Kelly only spends time on things she knows helps to successfully resolve your case. Here’s how she worked with me. Kelly did an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G job of digging me out of a deep legal hole I and a previous lawyer had dug into. BEFORE Kelly I spent a year paying money wrangling through a child support lawsuit, counter lawsuit, the discovery, all the way up to an actual trial, testimony and very contentious settlement agreement was reached and then thrown out the next day. The situation was nothing short of “nuclear.” I changed counsel to Kelly. She kept me informed, left out the emotion and carefully worked with opposing counsel to successfully resolve the case within 3 months. I was amazed. THEN, she helped me through a difficult separation AND reconciliation with my current spouse. That separation helped save our marriage and Kelly played an important part in getting us apart and ensuring we came back together in a legally responsible way. In both situations Kelly listened, acted and ensured successful resolution based on my goals and within her sound legal advice. My advice is hire a busy lawyer… hire Kelly.
