Meet Attorney Kelley Lewis

 
 

Supporting business clients through communication, strategy, and results.

With over a decade of legal expertise in business law, construction law, government relations and more, Kelley Lewis understands the nuances of the legal landscape — but most importantly, she knows how to help her clients gain confidence in understanding the issues and certainty in their choices.

Down to earth and highly capable, Kelley has earned a reputation for getting results while creating a positive experience for her clients. She is uniquely able to create an effective strategy, roll up her sleeves, and get things done. Kelley's professionalism and tenacity are matched only by her passion for connecting with people — she makes sure each individual is heard, understood, and supported. Her clients appreciate her attention to detail and dedication to understanding and supporting their best interests.

Kelley is known for her passion for her work, and her innate curiosity. She embraces each challenge as an opportunity to help solve a problem and learn something new. 

 

I have always been at home in the West — I was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and raised in Denver, Colorado. My dad was an attorney, but I wouldn't say I just followed in his footsteps — since I was a little girl, everyone told me I was good at arguing, and that love of negotiation eventually led me to pursue my path in law. I identify just as much as an entrepreneur as a lawyer, and in every entrepreneur I work with, every business owner or organization, everyone who rolls up their sleeves, blazes their own trail, and creates their own path in business and in life, I see a bit of myself. That mindset — of having a dream and going after it — inspires me to do everything in my power to help my clients succeed.

 

Experienced, dedicated, and community-focused.

Kelley Lewis draws from experience in public and private service and leadership positions — weaving together expertise from previous roles as a Senior Policy Advisor and Capitol Hill staffer along with diverse work in the public and private energy sectors, extensive lobbying and advocacy experience in legislative and regulatory fields, and legal training as a corporate attorney. The Secretary of the Interior appointed her to the Missouri Basin Resource Advisory Council for the Bureau of Land Management, where she currently serves as Vice Chair.

Today, Kelley Lewis leads KLH Advisors, an independent women-owned law firm dedicated to providing streamlined outside counsel and legal guidance for a wide range of clients — from individuals to small and midsize businesses and organizations. 

Kelley Lewis also works to support women business owners and entrepreneurs in her local community through leadership and networking events, masterminds, training workshops, and more. She serves on the Montana Women’s Business Center board and is a proud member of Prospera, the Big Sky Chamber of Commerce, and Sky Oro.
