Kelly J. le Vann B.A., J.D.

Kelly moved back to Red Deer to practice law following his graduation from the University of Victoria in 2017. Kelly was called to the Alberta Bar in 2018.

Kelly is an experienced Courtroom lawyer and practices in all areas of Civil Litigation; including administrative tribunals. Kelly is an amateur comedian and an excellent public speaker; you will find that he is rarely happier than when he is arguing for your rights in Court. Despite his enjoyment of the Courtroom, Kelly’s practice tends towards a practical and pragmatic view of cases which often end successfully in negotiated settlements rather than drawn out litigation. Kelly is a problem solver; his goal is to reduce large conflicts to simple issues and to settle those problems in an expedient and efficient manner. Kelly is an exceptional researcher and can quickly become an expert in obscure or complicated matters in business and law.

Kelly further practices in Real estate, Wills and Estates, Estate Administration, Guardianship and Trusteeship Applications, as well as Employment Matters; he is very good at paying attention to small details and can help in a variety of contract, document, or business-related work. Kelly’s background in litigation gives him insight into what may go wrong in drafting and he can often minimize or prevent the need for litigation in the future.

Kelly is a volunteer with Red Deer College’s Prospective Committee and enjoys spending time with his wife, Payton, whether that be swimming, biking, yoga, paddle boarding, and/or playing board games.

Kelly is extremely pleased to be awarded Red Deer’s Lawyer of the Year in 2020 by Red Deer’s Community Votes. Kelly was born and raised in Red Deer and strongly appreciates the support of his community.
