Admitted to Practice: Court of Appeals of Maryland (Licensed since 1997)

Since 1997, Kelly Pride, Esq. has dedicated her career to representing the underdogs of the legal system. As a former Legal Aid attorney and a seasoned Court-Appointed Public Defender, Kelly has spent nearly three decades in the legal trenches, defending the rights of vulnerable individuals against powerful, well-funded adversaries.

Today, she brings that same aggressive, mission-driven advocacy to the private sector. Recognizing that subprime auto lenders like Exeter Finance, Santander, and Credit Acceptance routinely use forced arbitration clauses to lock victims out of traditional courtrooms, Kelly founded Pride Law Office to turn corporate legal traps into consumer weapons. Because the American Arbitration Association (AAA) allows nationwide representation regardless of local state bar membership, Kelly leverages her deep experience to represent exploited consumers across all 50 states.

The Strategic Advantage: Law, Economics, and Policy

Holding predatory multi-billion-dollar finance companies accountable requires more than just an understanding of the law — it requires a deep mastery of the numbers. Kelly holds a Bachelor of Arts in Economics alongside a joint Juris Doctor (J.D.) and Master of Arts in Public Policy. This unique intersection of economic training and legal policy allows her to dissect complex retail installment contracts, expose predatory underwriting math, and uncover hidden fees that other firms miss.

Grounded in her faith and public-interest roots, Kelly treats every client with the dignity, compassion, and tireless dedication they deserve.

Our Mission

Why We Built This Firm

Predatory auto lenders count on one thing: that you don't know your rights. They bury arbitration clauses in your contract to block class action lawsuits — but those same clauses give you the right to file your own individual claim. We built Pride Law Office to make sure every consumer knows that right exists, and has a skilled attorney to enforce it.

Transparency First

No hidden fees. No surprises. We tell you exactly what your case is worth and what it will cost before we begin.

Individual Focus

Unlike class actions, we fight for your specific damages. You keep 100% of your individual recovery.

Speed Over Delay

AAA arbitration resolves in 3–6 months. We don't let lenders drag cases out for years.

Consumer First

We only represent consumers — never lenders. Our interests are always aligned with yours.
