    You can not go wrong with Megan!

    Posted by

    My husband and I hired Megan to gain custody of my stepson at the age of 5. His mother was no longer able to take care of him and keep him safe due to a mental illness she refused to seek help with. Megan helped us to gain all of the evidence needed to make sure we would know the outcome once we entered the courtroom. She helped us with our patience, and walked us step by step through every stage of the process. Her legal assistant, Amber, was also invaluable to us during that time. Amber is now an attorney herself. Once we were in the courtroom, Megan proved why she is so reliable in winning cases. She is relentless. She does not let anyone say anything false without cross-examining and proving it to be false (hence all of the homework of evidence gathering on the front end that never seems to happen fast enough to desperate parents fighting for the safety of their children, but which is necessary). She saved our son's life. We truly believe that. We are forever indebted to her hard work and awesome presence in the courtroom.

    Excellent Attorney

    Posted by

    I cannot say enough good things about Megan. She made the divorce process much easier for me...responded to emails almost immediately...copied me on all correspondence with opposing counsel...handled all business as soon as she possibly could. Megan is very easy to talk to, explains things well, and is extremely knowledgeable about the law. She’s the best attorney I’ve worked with... Do not hesitate to call her. I highly recommend! :-)

    Megan had a long initial meeting with me that lasted much longer than the appointment was scheduled for. She listened to me very carefully and answered all of my questions thoughtfully. Since the initial meeting, she has answered several additional questions via email with no additional fee.

    Megan is relentless when working for you. She informs you of all your options, makes suggestions, works fast and is always reachable which is unheard of in the legal world. She will do her best to protect your interests at every corner. If the need ever arises again I will use her without hesitation.

    Family Law Experience

    Posted by

    I never thought I would need an attorney to advocate for me and my family. However, when I did, I was quickly referred to Megan by a friend that had used her before. Megan is very passionate and probably works harder than anyone I have witnessed. She was an amazing communicator and always kept me informed and updated. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing attorney services in a family case.

    Tasha Taylor, Family Attorney on Apr 6, 2018
    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    Megan is an excellent attorney and advocate for her clients. She works hard and does a great job for her clients. I have no hesitation in recommending Megan for family law matters in Arkansas.

    Robert Holitik, Divorce and separation Attorney on Apr 3, 2018
    Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

    I endorse this lawyer. I met Megan on the opposite side of a matter almost three years ago. While we will continue to debate over who owns the "win", I concede that I met a strong, zealous advocate. Since then, I have had the opportunity to work with Megan as counsel on several different cases. I am consistently impressed by her passion, attention to detail, knowledge, and courtroom presence. Her compassion, drive, and tenacity combine to form a truly formidable litigation style. Her hard work has earned her the respect of her colleagues and the gratitude of her clients.

    Caroline Lewis, Family Attorney on Apr 3, 2018
    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    I endorse this lawyer. She is, frankly, one of the best attorneys I have met in the legal community. Professional and empathetic while still being a staunch advocate for her clients.

    Andrew Taylor, Family Attorney on Mar 30, 2018
    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    I have known Megan since she was a student in law school (when I was serving as an assistant dean there). She's a stellar lawyer with a (well-deserved) reputation for being a hard worker, and I have no hesitation about recommending her.

    Sonia Rios, Family Attorney on Mar 30, 2018
    Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

    Megan Wooster is a great attorney. I highly recommend her.

    Lori Howard, Family Attorney on Mar 6, 2017
    Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

    I endorse this lawyer. Megan is one of the best attorneys I know. She is always prepared, she takes her clients best interest to heart, she is honest and forthcoming with opposing counsel and the court, and she does whatever it takes to get the best outcome she can for her clients. I have worked with Megan on cases where she was the opposing counsel and where she was an ad litem for the children involved in the matter. Either way, I find Megan to be very knowledgeable and top-notch.

    Alex Burgos, Family Attorney on Mar 2, 2017

    Megan Wooster is an excellent attorney. I have had the opportunity to work with Megan and trust her legal knowledge regarding divorce, separation, child custody and all related family law matters. Not only is she knowledgeable about these areas of law, but she is also deeply devoted to her clients. You will be glad that you chose to use Megan Wooster as your attorney, and the opposing party will wish they had found her first.
