At the Law Office of Kenneth A. Puzycki, our 3 staff attorneys have over 35 years of combined experience, bringing a comfortable level of professionalism and excellence to every client and case.
After graduating in 1988 from the University of Michigan-Flint Honors Program with a business degree, Ken attended Wayne State University Law School and graduated in 1991. Since then, Ken has been practicing law exclusively in West Michigan. He started his legal career with Miller Johnson in Grand Rapids, followed by a smaller insurance defense firm in Holland, and a short stint in commercial real estate. Ken started his own firm in 1996, where he decided to focus his practice on estate planning and estate administration. He then expanded to include Medicaid and Veterans’ Administration planning, special needs and disability planning, and probate litigation. As part of his practice, Ken also helps small businesses set up Limited Liability Companies and execute simple real estate transactions. The firm does NOT take any divorce, personal injury or bankruptcy cases, but if clients have such issues, Ken has a relationship with attorneys who specialize in those areas of law. Ken enjoys sharing his legal expertise with non-profit organizations, conducting seminars at churches and at his new office, which has a large classroom designed for that purpose.
Andy initially lived in Holland, but then his family moved to East Jordan, in northern lower Michigan. After graduating high school, he moved back “south” and attended Grand Valley State University where he met his wife. They lived in Grand Rapids for about 10 years while Andy attended law school. He began working for Ken shortly after passing the bar and has enjoyed working here ever since. Andy is married and has two school-aged children who keep him busy. When not working or doing school activities, he enjoys running, biking, and camping, exploring as much of Michigan as weather permits.
Sharmila graduated from the University of Delhi with a Masters in English Literature and a Master of Philosophy. She earned her law degree from Western Michigan University, Thomas M. Cooley Law School, magna cum laude. She joined Ken’s practice in 2015 where her focus is on probate and estate administration and estate planning. She is a member of the American Bar Association and the State Bar Association of Michigan. Sharmila enjoys travelling and spending time on the shores of Lake Michigan with her husband, two children, and their two dogs.
