About Chad A
Chad A Kelsch studied for his undergraduate degree at the University of Oklahoma before earning a law degree from the University of North Dakota School of Law. He received a traditional legal education that combined classroom study with practical training at a Midwestern law school. Those academic years established the foundations for a career spent practicing across several state and federal forums.
After law school, Kelsch gained admissions that allow him to work in multiple jurisdictions. He is admitted to the bars of Missouri, North Dakota and Minnesota. He also holds admission to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit and to the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. Those qualifications mean he can represent clients in both trial and appellate venues within the regions covered by those courts.
Kelsch has been involved in local and state bar communities for many years. He has been a member of the Minnesota Bar Association since 2000 and joined the Hennepin County Bar Association in 2004. Both memberships are listed as current. These affiliations place him among lawyers who practice in Minnesota’s courts and who participate in the legal community there.
He operates from Kelsch Law Office, P.A., where he handles matters that arise in the jurisdictions where he is admitted. Admission to the Eighth Circuit and to the federal district court in Minnesota permits him to file and argue cases in federal court, while his state admissions allow for representation in state trial courts. His practice therefore spans state and federal systems in the Upper Midwest.
Colleagues and clients see him as a practitioner who moves between courtroom proceedings and other forms of dispute resolution. He works on filings, court appearances and case management for matters brought in the courts where he holds admission. The combination of state and federal credentials shapes the practical options he can offer to people and businesses seeking counsel.
Kelsch continues to maintain his professional memberships and to practice from his office in Minnesota. He currently practices at Kelsch Law Office, P.A., where he represents clients in matters in the jurisdictions where he is admitted.
