The Story of Kraayeveld Family Law

Our law firm was founded more than 30 years ago. Although not the original mission of founding  attorney James W. Kraayeveld, he formed Western Michigan’s premier family law practice after finding a passion and skill for helping clients successfully resolve some of life’s most challenging legal issues. Our first law office was in Cascade, Michigan. As our practice expanded, we outgrew that location and moved to the Carriage House in Grand Rapids. Along the way, we added a lot of talent. Every member of our team understands the importance of family and we are committed to providing the highest quality of personalized, professional representation. Our people include: 

• Jim Kraayeveld (lead attorney and founder)
• Kelsey A. McCalmon (Attorney)
• Jordan Swears (Attorney)
• Holly Robrahn (Attorney)
• Corinne M. Kraayeveld-Verwijs (Practice Manager) 
• Max Hodges (Paralegal)
• Kristin Trieu (Paralegal)
