Find someone else

The only thing this law firm does quickly is send invoices. So do not use them if you want someone proactive and knowledgeable. The only “advising” that was done pointed us completely in the wrong direction, subsequently tacking on almost three additional years to our case and adding thousands of dol...lars to their pockets. We had to reach out multiple time over the last 12 months and did not hear anything back until the court requested an update. I wonder if we have a year to pay the invoice since it took a year to get the lawyer to every respond to us? EXTREMELY displeased with the lack of communication from the lawyer. Due to her non-responsiveness, she is now costing us a substantial amount of money. Unacceptable. Looking into GASB violation of rules of client communication. Bottom line- find someone else.

Megan was very professional and responded to and dealt with any concerns I had in a very timely manner. I'm very glad I chose her as my attorney.

Highly Recommend

Megan was very thorough and reassuring throughout my extended divorce process. She advocated for me and my kids, with everything I needed, as well as for things I didn’t know I needed. She was patient, understanding, and supportive with me wanting to take the the easiest route possible; to eventuall...y having to go the route of going to court. I highly recommend Megan for those that need help with simple, straight forward divorces, to divorces that unfortunately involve contention.

Best of the best attorney in Megan Wallin

I honestly cannot imagine anyone else handling my divorce. Megan is as professional as they come, incredibly knowledgeable, explained everything to me as many times as I needed it explained, fought for myself and my boys but also held back when I asked. She is a force in the legal world; but is also ...a kind and loving human being and that was important to me and my children during this huge life event. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for a divorce or family law attorney.
