Michael Kielty has spent more than 25 years defending people accused of crimes in St. Charles County and throughout Missouri. When your freedom is on the line, experience matters.
Fighting and Winning for Over 25 Years
At big-box firms, you meet a partner and get handed to an associate fresh out of law school. Not here. Kielty Law is a boutique criminal defense firm by design — discreet, professional, and personal. From your first phone call to the verdict, you work directly with Mike.
Mike knows how the other side builds its case, where it cuts corners, and where it breaks. Since 1999, no attorney in St. Charles County has had more success in front of a jury.* He's the heavy hitter prosecutors dread squaring off against.

DEFENDING YOUR RIGHTS. PROTECTING YOUR FUTURE.
A DWI threatens your license, your record, and your livelihood. Mike attacks the stop, the tests, and the State's case.
Learn more →Possession to delivery — Mike challenges the search, the seizure, and the State's lab work.
Learn more →Trafficking charges carry decades. These cases demand a trial attorney who has beaten them before.
Learn more →An accusation alone can destroy a life. These cases demand discretion, urgency, and a proven trial lawyer.
Learn more →Domestic cases move fast — no-contact orders, lost gun rights, and charges that survive even when the accuser recants.
Learn more →From a shoving match to a felony charge — Missouri assault law escalates fast, and so should your defense.
Learn more →A stealing conviction brands you as dishonest on every background check. Don't let one accusation define you.
Learn more →Forgery is a felony built almost entirely on intent — and intent is exactly where the State's case is weakest.
Learn more →Fraud cases are paper wars. Mike reads the State's documents looking for one thing — the holes.
Learn more →Online accusations rest on digital evidence — and digital evidence is far weaker than the State pretends. Mike makes them prove every byte.
Learn more →Federal court is a different arena — grand juries, sentencing guidelines, and prosecutors with deep resources. Mike is licensed and battle-tested in the E.D. Mo.
Learn more →A protection order hearing is a real trial with real consequences — gun rights, your home, your kids. Don't walk in alone.
Learn more →A violation report can turn a closed case into a prison sentence. The revocation hearing is winnable — with the right lawyer.
Learn more →Your child's entire future is on the line. Juvenile court has its own rules — and certification to adult court is the danger to fight.
Learn more →Criminal defense is local. The judge, the prosecutor, the clerk, the probation officer — knowing the players matters. Mike has spent 25+ years in the courtrooms of St. Charles, St. Louis, Warren, and Lincoln Counties, plus federal court in the Eastern District of Missouri.
St. Charles, St. Peters, O'Fallon, Cottleville, Dardenne Prairie, Wentzville, Lake St. Louis, Augusta, Warrenton, Wright City, Troy, Moscow Mills — and everywhere in between.
