About Megan
Biography
Since joining Stephan Zouras in 2017, I have been a fierce advocate for employees and consumers, including assisting the firm in groundbreaking actions involving the Illinois Biometric Privacy Act (BIPA), employee misclassification, improper wage deductions, unpaid wages, and unlawful credit checks.
In 2015, I graduated from Loyola University Chicago with degrees in Political Science and International Studies. I also spent a year after college teaching high-school English in Vigo, Spain.
I graduated Cum Laude from Chicago-Kent College of Law in 2019 where I focused on employment law. I received a Certificate in Workplace Litigation and Alternative Dispute Resolution and served as a Student Editor of the Employee Rights and Employment Policy Journal published by Chicago-Kent and the Institute for Law and the Workplace. I also served as an Executive Board Member and Fundraising Chair of the Kent Justice Foundation.
I am licensed to practice law in the state of Illinois and am an active member of the Chicago Bar Association.
