KELSEY BLACK

Regarded as some as the one-woman repository of legal knowledge and bad jokes, Kelsey achieved fame (infamy) by her readiness to go toe to toe with Goliath and impressive success rate at coming out on top.  Having concluded over a decade ago that working in big law was no fun, she started Black Law PA in 2013 with the modestly stated ambition of changing the way that law is practiced. Her visions as founder and her everyday role at the firm are one and the same – to be an agent of change, uncover opportunities and develop strategies that achieve greater results for her clients. She firmly believes that she enjoys winning more than most people. Bet the company litigation and some celebrity clients as well, but she doesn’t like to mention it much.    

Kelsey’s reputation isn’t just built on stacking courtroom wins—its grounded in her relentless commitment to her clients.  She listens first, strategizes second, and never loses sight of what matters most:  achieving outcomes that are always aligned with her client’s goals.  Whether it’s a high-stakes dispute or a nuanced negotiation for a sale of a business, she brings the same energy and empathy to every matter.  If you enter the office, you will likely see her mantra taped to the office wall – great legal work starts with understanding people, not just problems.  

Kelsey swears that she’s writing a book one day, and not one that has anything to do with law or nonfiction. Until then, her daughters, husband and dog keep her busy when she’s not “work busy.” If you ask her, she happy has a claim, and with Ted Lasso now back for a fourth season, she’s dangerously close to be insufferably optimistic.
