Kelly S. Davis


Wyoming Attorney


Kelly S. DavisKelly S. Davis is our estate planning and elder law attorney based in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Practicing since 1979, Kelly has developed a deep understanding of the legal needs of seniors, persons with disabilities, and their families. His legal practice focuses on creating detailed trust and estate planning documents, creating wills and managing probate, as well as advising on long-term care and Medicaid planning. Kelly’s approach is centered on maintaining the dignity and control of his clients over their personal affairs, which is especially crucial for those living with disabilities.

Raised in Cheyenne, Kelly’s early experiences at his grandparent’s ranch and local community significantly shaped his values and career. He developed a profound respect for the elderly, learning from their stories and understanding the challenges they face daily. His first professional role involved investigating Medicare fraud in Wyoming, where he applied his understanding of elder needs to protect them from exploitation—an issue that would later define much of his career in elder law.
