Firm: Melissa Kelleigh
99 Monroe Ave NW Ste 200 , Grand Rapids , Michigan 49503
Practice Areas: Business , Family , Professional Malpractice, Family
I am passionate about helping people with their family law problems. I help my clients with issues of divorce, child custody, parenting time, child support, and family abuse protection orders. As a parent myself, I understand how important these issues are to my clients. I view my job as a compassionate guide through a complex legal system that can be difficult for non-lawyers to navigate on their own. I try to resolve these issues as amicably as possible, although I have taken many cases to trial when it is necessary and appropriate to do so. I draw on my over 20 years of experience as an attorney to find the best solution to life's challenges.
