The Pushy Lawyer

Hi, I’m Kelley — The Pushy Lawyer. Paralyzed at 16, I’m now a national trial lawyer and advocate for the disability community. No one pushes harder.

I fight for justice after spinal cord injuries because I live it too.

I recently joined Chris Dreyer on the Personal Injury Mastermind podcast to discuss how my personal experience with spinal cord injury has shaped my career, my law firm, and my approach to advocacy.

After sustaining a spinal cord injury at age 16, I spent years learning firsthand how paralysis can reshape nearly every part of a person’s life. Today, that experience is at the heart of The Spinal Cord Injury Law Firm, the specialized practice I founded to represent people facing many of the same challenges I have lived through myself.

During this episode, I share how my lived experience has influenced:
🔹 Building a nationwide referral network focused on spinal cord injury law
🔹 Recognizing overlooked legal issues, including pressure injuries
🔹 Understanding the long-term consequences of catastrophic injuries
🔹 Selecting life care planners and building teams of experts to support my clients
🔹 Turning personal challenges, such as wheelchair damage during air travel, into opportunities for advocacy
🔹 Using specialization and personal experience to create meaningful change in the spinal cord injury community

“I have a spinal cord injury myself. I am the spinal cord injury lawyer.”

My personal journey has shaped not only the lawyer I am, but also the mission of my firm. I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my story and discuss why specialized advocacy matters.

First Day of Middle School!💜💛🍎

What a beautiful (and early!) morning spent getting this girl off to her first day of middle school at National Cathedral School.

The beautiful opening Cathedral service and flag-raising ceremony made me pause and realize just what a special place MB is entering and what an exciting new chapter she has ahead of her.

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde (Bishop of Washington) said, “All the really exciting things require more courage than we currently have.” What a perfect reminder for the start of middle school: to be brave, take the leap, and embrace all the exciting things ahead.💜💛

What a beautiful morning for Wells to start Kindergarten at Bailey’s for Spanish Immersion, Wheeler to start 4th grade at Mantua and Mary Brooks to head to Middle School Prep for Success at NCS! 🍎📚🚌

Gearing up for the beginning of a new school year and getting everyone oriented for what’s ahead. Three kids at three new (and different) schools.

Wells starts kindergarten at a Spanish Immersion program, continuing the path he began in his immersion preschool. Wheeler turned 10 (DOUBLE DIGITS!) and is moving to a full-time advanced academic school, ready for a new challenge. And MB starts middle school at National Cathedral School, already on the field and gearing up for her fall field hockey season.

Proud of these three and excited to see all they accomplish this year, each on their own unique journey! ❤️. We are soaking up the last days of summer!

Family is Life! I love the moments when we are all together 🌊☀️ (and did you really spend a week at the beach if you don’t leave with an airbrushed shirt?!?)

What a fun little trip with Wheeler to pop into Philly (the kid’s first cheese steak) followed with fun and some hard work 🥍 in Wilmington for the First in Class Camp! The 2035 Madlax boys are such a great group of kids (and parents)! School’s out and Wheeler is keeping the roads hot!
