Megan Smith Bazurto

I hired Megan as a consultant to help me in my self-represented grandparent visitation case that was set to go to trial. I had done all of the footwork leading up to the trial but found myself needing legal guidance for how to introduce evidence, compile witnesses and general approach. From the mom...ent I contacted Megan, she helped me tremendously to streamline what was in front of me, and also to zoom out and pay close attention to the main points in my case and what the judge would be paying attention to. This was extremely helpful for me, as my case was emotionally charged and it was easy for me to lose sight of what would be the judge's perspective. Megan met with me to coach me and help me prepare, and although I had already paid for a set amount of consult time, she was very generous with additional time and I knew it was because she cares and wanted to make sure I had all that I needed. She has been awesome from the get go! She is compassionate and professional and I loved the fact that she tells it like it is. After the trial, she has followed up with me to make sure all went well and was available to help me with a post-trial issue. She's great and I would recommend her to anyone. She helped me through a very difficult situation and provided insight that I believe helped me win visitation of my granddaughter. Thank you Megan!

Megan has been the calming force throughout my difficult divorce. She is a genuine person who cares about her clients but is one who does not hesitate to stand firm with regards to issuing solid legal advice. During my case, emotions would run high and she would help me see through each step logica...lly so as to not keep the case from having to go to an unnecessary trial. The goal of resolving my case in a quick manner and with a healthy level of compromise (on both sides) was always kept in mind. Her counsel is a big reason I can walk away from my divorce with the ability to co-parent amicably with my ex. She was always quick to respond to my emails and phone calls. Megan was concise and kept me informed of each step of my case. She not only responded with our portion of the work with speed and accuracy but ensured the opposing council's mistake-riddled documents were quickly rectified so as not to delay judgement. She truly went up and beyond! I would not only recommend her to all my friends and family, but I would use her for all my future legal needs. Megan Bazurto is an attorney you would want to have on your side!

Megan failed to review my case and represent the real issues in my custody hearing. She was not prepared and did not disclose documentation/events prior to the hearing so the judge would not let it be permissible on my court date. I do not feel I was prepared for the hearing nor for the results of t...he hearing. I hired Megan to help facilitate a fair and equal custody order . I did not get more time with my children (actually I received less) and was ordered to pay more child support. In the end she pretty much blamed it on the fact that I was a "man" and you never know what you're going to get with the judge that is on the case. If you are a man, care about your children and want to have time with them do not go to Megan for your custody issues. Go to a legal team that will address and fight for fathers rights.

If you are looking for an attorney who is qualified, sharp, professional, personable, and intelligent, look no further. After having consultations with FIVE different attorneys regarding child custody, Megan was recommended to me. After speaking to her for less than thirty minutes, I was sold. She g...ets it. A mother herself, she has acted with empathy and understanding. Megan has treated my case as if this was her only case, giving us her full attention at all hours. This has been an incredibly stressful ordeal and I feel like I’ve had a friend by my side. In addition to her personable service, she is extremely logical and resourceful. Megan does her research and ensures that she understands every aspect of the matter at hand. She really is the complete package. I am so grateful for her! YOU WILL NOT REGRET HIRING HER!

Attorney Bazurto helped me with a family law matter. My ex-boyfriend filed for joint custody of my daughter even though he abandoned me during the pregnancy and never met her after she was born. Attorney Bazurto held my hand throughout the entire process of responding to his complaint, filing my ow...n request for custody orders and writing my petition to move away. She helped with the trial of the case and we ended up with the best possible result. I was granted permission to move out of state and given sole physical custody of my daughter. Attorney Bazurto was really knowledgeable about this area of the law. She was very passionate about my case and made herself available to me seven days a week. She was very responsive to my calls, always calling me back within a few hours. She was very warm and friendly, not at all like what you get with a lot of other attorneys. Please use her for any family matters you encounter. She will treat you like family.
