A dedicated attorney with 15 years of diverse legal experience, I have cultivated a unique professional journey that spans judicial chambers, law firms, legal services, academia, and nonprofit leadership.
I founded QK Legal to leverage my extensive legal expertise and passion for fostering workplaces where people are treated with respect and fairness.
My devotion to workplace advocacy stems from my roots. My father, a Teamsters shop steward, taught me the importance of fighting for workers’ rights and fair treatment.
I understand the courage it takes to seek legal help. When people contact me, they’re often stressed and uncertain about speaking up for themselves. My role is to be their advocate, providing confidence and support through challenging workplace situations. My mission is simple: to fight for your fair shake, just as my father would have done.
After spending over a decade in Queens, New York, I now reside in Stamford, Connecticut, with my husband and two sons.

Megan helped me with reviewing my separation agreement. She was very thorough; I received a multi-page memo on the various legal terms in the document I was signing. More importantly, she was able to provide context about what was important and worth negotiating for, and helped me craft the negotiat...

Highly skilled, practical, and caring employment attorney - highly recommended
Someone in my network referred me to Megan, and I'm so glad they did. She was incredible to work with on a negotiated exit/severance situation for my job, based in NY state.
