This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

She will take good care of you

Before even knowing if I needed an attorney Ms. Melancon and I had many phone calls. She couldn't have been more patient, honest and helpful. I have her in my contacts list on my phone just in case.

Professional and Personable

I am thoroughly grateful that I chose McKinley as my attorney. As the legal stresses are overwhelming, McKinley handled my fears, questions, and concerns quickly and in a way that I was able to understand. We had multiple face to face meetings, phone conversations, and emails throughout this entire... process. She made sure I was aware of due dates and court dates and guided me through all the options for the case. She was confident in the court room and that encouraged me during the legal proceedings. Overall, I would highly recommend McKinley as she was professional and personable with me step by step, working towards the best possible outcome for me.

Expect Victory With McKinley!

McKinley was hired to represent my record label in a breach of contract against an A&R company that was hard to deal with. McKinley met with me and listened to my concerns. After she read all of documents that pertained to the case she strategically came up with a plan of attack and was able to hand...le this in a quick and professional manner. McKinley is now the entertainment lawyer I will hire for all my record label needs. Thank you McKinley!

Hire McKinley!

I hired McKinley Melancon to represent me in a DWI case in Travis County, Texas. Her representation is extremely thorough and well-planned, and she always makes time for me when I have any questions or concerns. She makes your goals a priority and she will fight to achieve those goals! I would defin...itely recommend hiring this attorney for any criminal charge you may be facing.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
