Megan Elise Amelung

I try to avoid writing negative reviews, but our experience with Megan and her firm was, frankly, shocking — and others should be warned. Nearly 4 months (16 weeks) after signing an agreement to update our existing wills, trust, medical, and other documents (they estimated it would take 10-12 weeks),... we still had nothing except a single legal answer to one of our questions… no request to see our current docs, no attempt to find out what we wanted revised, no response to our multiple requests for an update or ETA (other than “you’re next in line"), and no apologies. After 6 weeks of hearing nothing, we proactively uploaded our current docs to their messaging system, thinking maybe it would jumpstart something. But after 16 weeks and still nothing, we realized that if they treated us this way now, what if we needed something more urgent in the future? So since we had nothing yet to show for all this time and energy, and this is not the kind of relationship we were looking for, we messaged and suggested that we part ways. Within the day of hearing this, they claimed they were “nearly done” (how, without our input?) and FINALLY produced something: a bill for $1700. The “nearly done” docs consisted of a few minutes of transferring data from our existing docs to their forms, which we could have done for free using forms on the Internet (minus all the errors and typos they made). Such poor communication, lack of respect and responsiveness, and bad business ethics. Do you really want to chance such an experience with your important legal work?

Megan did a great job. My father has a sizable trust and I am the sole beneficiary. To this point, several family members were involved. Megan articulated my position so that the courts understood my situation based on the will provided. Her follow up is superior and we as a family are truly thankfu...l for her council. Megan is a must have in your portfolio.

After to speaking with a few lawyers which I wasn't impressed with. I was fortunate to be referred to Megan to set up my estate, living trust and will. She was easy to talk too and very detailed and helpful. She answered all my questions and guided me to make the best sound decisons for myself and... family. I definietly recommend her for preparing all your estate needs, from large to small, she is the best.
