Dear Clients and Neighbors,

It is with careful consideration that I will be closing my practice November 1, 2025. I have absolutely loved serving this community, being a source of support, and finding thoughtful solutions for clients and their families. Without the community of South Milwaukee, my dear friends and family who have supported me in every step, and all those that I have had the pleasure of working with, I could not have grown my practice and settled into the legal space.

With that, if you are a current client, don’t fret! I will work diligently to complete our work before November 1. For former clients, I will continue to be available to update estate plans. Unfortunately, with my new work schedule, I will not be able to take on probate administration. However, I would recommend the following trusted attorneys for your probate needs. If you are a new client, please consider the below attorneys for your estate planning or probate administration needs.

Thank you! Very sincerely,

Kelly A. Martyka

Hello Team!

It comes with a bit of sadness, but a whole lot of excitement, that I will be mostly closing my practice beginning next Monday, January 24, 2022. I will continue to be minimally available for estate planning but will no longer be taking any other probate cases or other work. I will be completing my current caseload, and will maintain my law license but will not have a regular, full-time practice.

I am taking an Associate Director of Gift Planning position with the Greater Milwaukee Foundation. I will really looking forward to taking my experience with estate planning, and my passion for social justice, community involvement, and philanthropy into this new position.

As always, I am happy to answer questions.

Thank you so much for a great seven and half years. I will miss interacting with this community daily so much. But I am so excited for my new path!
