Horrible with communication
Started out great....then all of a sudden, I couldn't get her to respond to anything for sometimes 4-5 weeks. Unless it was an automatic response via Email that she was on vacation. Her assistant isn't helpful at all, every time I communicated with her it was like it was her first day on the job. Too...
"I have had Megan as opposing counsel on more than one occasion and always found her to be a great advocate for her clients, knowledgeable on the law, and well prepared. I have sent potential clients to Megan when I've had a conflict, so I do not hesitate to endorse her."
"I endorse this lawyer. Megan is a fantastic addition to the Lawton & Cates Family Law team. She is very courteous and concientious in her work with clients. She is very knowledgeable and assertive with opposing counsel. Her tact allows her to be aggressive without being offensive, which produces good results for her clients."
