See What Our Clients Have to Say

John Caldwell
President, Paradigm Properties | Paradigm Capital Advisors

“I’ve been working with Kellye on commercial lease transactions for the last five years and I can give her my highest recommendation. She has deep experience and a level of sophistication about leases that enable her to add value to almost every transaction, frequently posing creative solutions in addition to an attorney’s traditional role of keeping their client out of trouble. Kellye has a high level of knowledge in her area of expertise and I’ve found that I can trust her to dig into the details and “see around the corner”. However, the best thing about working with Kellye is her responsiveness and her turnaround time – she has been terrific on both.”

Michael Bradford

“The whole spirit of the negotiations, particularly in the past couple of days, were very much goal-oriented collectively. But a lot of it has to do with the attorneys getting along, so thank you very much for having a jovial attitude about it, staying on top of business points and watching our back on things that we didn’t notice from a business perspective. Thanks very much for all of your help, the long calls and grinding through the details without getting deal-fatigue.”

Marci Schneider Carl
Director of Real Estate, Crate and Barrel

“I’ve worked closely with Kellye for over five years leasing up our retail shopping center portfolio. We have worked on many complicated deals with sophisticated, nationally-recognized tenants. She’s responsive, creative, works well with opposing counsel, and knows how to get things done. Her advice and expertise have proven invaluable, and I’m excited to continue working with her on many leasing deals in the future.”

Mike Lombardo
Managing Broker, Blue Star Properties

“Kellye is my go-to real estate attorney who specializes in downtown office leases. She handled over 600,000 square feet of leases for me when we redeveloped The National (where Revival Food Hall is) and I have also referred many tenant rep clients to her as well. Kellye used to be at the big firms, but branched out on her own to give her clients more personalized attention. She is great to work with and a tenacious negotiator on her client’s behalf.”

Alissa Adler
Senior Vice President, Colliers International

Kellye is an excellent attorney who has been a great business partner, navigating many challenging leasing situations over the years. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and resourceful. We appreciate that she offers solutions and works well with cross-functional teams. I am confident that Kellye will exceed your expectations.
