It is Official! Kaycee Dellos has been SWORN IN! 👨‍⚖️

Kaycee Dellos has joined the W. James Payne Law Firm as a Talented New Associate Attorney. We’re thrilled to welcome her to the team! 🏛

Kaycee will be focusing on expanding the Firm’s practice areas (to include misdemeanors and lower-level felonies), where she brings a strong foundation from her experiences as a Student Attorney with the Laramie County Public Defender’s Office in Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Kaycee earned her J.D. from the University of Wyoming College of Law and was recently admitted to practice law in North Carolina. She has been working with the Firm since her first year of law school as part of the Firm’s mentorship program. In this program, she received focused hands-on mentorship from attorney W. James Payne across every facet of the law. He impressed upon her the importance of creative problem-solving and a client-centered approach. This experience allowed her to bridge the gap between abstract law school theory and actual practice.

We are excited to watch Kaycee grow as a new attorney and see how Kaycee’s skills, energy, and passion will further develop our Firm. The W. James Payne Law Firm is looking forward to more opportunities to defend your Freedom. Please join us in welcoming Kaycee to the W. James Payne Law Firm family!
