Kelly Noyes is a Shareholder and co-Chair of the Class Actions Section.

Kelly has significant experience in complex business litigation, particularly in the areas of ERISA and health care billing and collections. Kelly pairs her knowledge of the law with a passion for understanding her clients’ businesses, so she can achieve cost-effective resolutions to clients’ problems, both in and out of the courtroom. She has particular experience in the ERISA, benefits, and health care sectors, working with providers, payers (including self-insured employers), and vendors to resolve disputes under benefit plans and implement procedures to avoid future litigation. Kelly regularly litigates in both state and federal courts throughout the country, including litigating appeals before the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Wisconsin Court of Appeals and Supreme Court.

Kelly is also a member of the Compensation and Benefits/ERISA Section, where she focuses on drafting, consulting, and compliance with regard to retirement plans, health and welfare benefit plans, ERISA, Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs), and executive compensation. Kelly’s extensive litigation background provides her with a unique perspective that allows her to accurately counsel clients regarding risk, and gives her a keen insight of potential issues when drafting and advising with regard to client retirement and benefit plans.

Kelly is an active supporter of women business owners and entrepreneurs.
