About Michella

Michella K. Melton was raised in west Texas and is a life-long Texan. She has lived and worked in Collin County for the last 20 plus years and has practiced law in Collin County since 2002. After practicing law with another well-known family law firm for almost 10 years, Michella opened the Law Office of Michella K. Melton in 2012 in McKinney.

Michella practices primarily in the areas of family law, including divorce, child custody issues, and child support. Michella has handled numerous divorce & family law cases involving complex property division and complex child-related issues, as well as post-divorce issues involving enforcement and modification of court orders. Michella works with her clients and opposing parties to encourage a settlement when possible, especially if children are involved. However, Michella is prepared to handle issues inside the courtroom when a settlement is not in the client's best interests. Having litigated cases for the last 16 years, when parties are unable to settle their case outside the courtroom, you can feel confident knowing that Michella is ready to fight for your rights in court.
