Amelia Barr

Amelia Barr is an associate attorney at Kellner Green, PLLC in Louisville, Kentucky, a firm focused on divorce and family law. The firm handles contested and uncontested divorce, child custody, maintenance, child support, adoption, domestic violence, and dependency, neglect, and abuse matters. Amelia joined Kellner Green as a law clerk in 2024 while completing law school and became a Kentucky-licensed attorney in 2025, bringing recent academic and clinical advocacy experience to the practice.

Amelia earned her J.D., magna cum laude, from the University of Louisville in 2025 and a B.A. in Political Science, magna cum laude, from the University of Louisville in 2021. In law school, she served as a peer mentor to first-generation law students and competed on the National Mock Trial Team. Her education developed skills in evidence, trial strategy, legal writing, and client communication that directly support work in family-law matters involving contested facts and sensitive personal circumstances.

Her clinical experience included work with the Ackerson Law Clinic, where she represented domestic violence survivors under a limited practice license and helped them petition for protective orders. That work provided direct exposure to client counseling, courtroom preparation, and urgent legal issues affecting personal safety. Amelia’s mock-trial background further strengthened her ability to organize evidence, examine factual disputes, and present arguments, all of which are useful in custody, protective-order, and other family-court proceedings.

Amelia Barr is admitted in Kentucky and is a member of the Kentucky Bar Association and Louisville Bar Association. Her early practice is grounded in strong academic performance and hands-on advocacy experience involving domestic violence and trial preparation. She works within a Louisville family-law firm that addresses disputes affecting parents, children, and household finances, and she brings a careful, research-based approach to helping clients understand legal procedures and prepare for negotiated or contested family-court matters.
