Kelly Fritsch: An Experienced
Family Law Attorney You Can Trust

Kelly Fritsch was born and raised in Western New York. After graduating high school, Kelly attended undergraduate school and earned a degree focused on paralegal studies. She began employment with a law firm in Niagara Falls, New York where she discovered an interest in family law. Kelly met her husband, Clay, shortly thereafter and relocated to Houston, Texas.

While working full-time as a paralegal for a boutique family law firm in Houston, Kelly earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Houston and her law degree from South Texas College of Law. While at South Texas College of Law, Kelly spent two summers clerking for the Honorable Russell Austin in Probate Court 1 of Harris County.

In 2009, Kelly was admitted to the State Bar of Texas and began her career as a family law attorney by joining the law firm of Golda R. Jacob & Associates. The firm transitioned to the partnership of Jacob & Fritsch, P.C. until Kelly opened her own law firm in 2014...

Kelly has extensive experience handling a wide range of complex family law matters, including contested custody disputes, complex property issues in divorce cases, modifications, enforcements, bench trials, jury trials, and appeals.

Kelly is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, a member of the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists, a Member of the Gulf Coast Family Law Specialists, a Member of the Houston Bar Association Family Law Section, a Fellow of the Texas Bar Foundation, and a Member of the Texas Bar College.

Kelly also spends time giving back to the family law community in Texas. Kelly currently serves as a board member to the Gulf Coast Family Law Specialists and council member to the Family Law Section of the State Bar of Texas. She is the former Chair of the Houston Bar Association, Family Law Section after serving for eight years. In addition to her leadership positions, Kelly also contributes as a committee member to the Pattern Jury Charge Committee for the State Bar of Texas.

Kelly has been recognized by her family law peers being honored with Texas Monthly’s Rising Star designation in 2015, 2016, and 2017 and Texas Monthly’s Super Lawyer designation in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022.

to Say About Our Work

“Kelly is as good as they come. I’ve worked with other attorneys and she stands out as one that is more than capable, intelligent, trustworthy, easy to work with, and is a fighter. In fact, you will not find someone more genuine as her. If you want to be just another case number that needs to be attended to, keep looking. But if you want someone that truly cares about you and your family; someone that will go the extra mile, go with Kelly Fritsch. You will be in good hands.”

“After a bad experience with a prior law firm handling my case, I was lucky to be referred by a colleague to Alicia Palmer at Kelly L. Fritsch, P.C. Alicia was very professional, compassionate, hardworking, understanding and most importantly highly knowledgeable in her field. She always had time for her client (even off the clock), was very patient, and had answers to my questions and solutions to any problems that came up. I felt so confident with her by my side in court. My divorce which lasted over a year with the previous firm was closed in less than three months after Alicia took over. I highly recommend this firm because their goal is to obtain positive outcomes for clients.”
