Professional and Caring!

Megan Dunn represented me in a complicated DUI case. She was able to navigate the legal details with great competence While guiding me in a most professional and caring way to a great outcome. I would highly recommend her services to anyone needing assistance. Thanks Megan!

Megan really cares for her clients

I had a DUI charge against me with a possible hit and run. I found Callahan Law and also read the reviews which were very helpful when i had to decide who i wanted to help me. Megan was my attorney and i couldnt have been more appreciative with all of her hard work. I first met with her in the Seattl...e office location and she reviewed some things with me on how the DUI process is handled. I had multiple court dates to attend and Megan was very well spoken and reassured me that i would be okay. My mom really liked her and could tell that she was tough and collected each time we had to approach the front of the court. She helped me bring down some of the costs and got the hit and run charge dismissed. My BAC level was very high at a .196 i believe and she also got it down to a NO TEST. Today was my final court date for sentencing and Megan spoke to the judge on my behalf. She said some really kind things about me and who i am. So if you're looking for someone to represent you Callahan Law is a great choice and Megan was fantastic.

Megan went above and beyond!! TRULY OUTSTANDING

This was my third DUI (plus a charge of Reckless and Failure to Obey) so I knew I was facing some pretty serious consequences. I met with Megan the week of the incident and she got the ball rolling immediately. She encouraged me to get into treatment right away and reassured me that we would get thro...ugh this together. I had confidence in her from the beginning and she never let me down. She was always available to me by cell or email and the excellent support staff in her office kept me on top of everything as well. I know my review should focus on her legal expertise (which was outstanding) but for me, the most important part was the sense of calm I had knowing that while I was taking care of myself in recovery, she had my back in EVERYTHING court-related and that was HUGE for me and my husband!! She was my voice and advocate to the prosecuting attorney and the judge. She got me released from random court UA’s because I was already having them done in treatment and it took me 3 buses to get to the courthouse. In addition to the police report, she did in-depth research including review of the 911 call and reviewing personnel files of the arresting officers. She found out what the Department of Licensing would require of me down the road and she outlined what options I had to serve my time. Ultimately, Megan got the Reckless thrown out and I was sentenced to 24 hrs. in jail and an $1,200 fine. Nobody could have asked for a better outcome. So if you’re reading this review because you’ve just gotten a DUI (or other criminal charges), I recommend two things: HIRE MEGAN POWERS (Dunn) because you won’t find a better attorney anywhere and GET SERIOUS about your drinking and be proactive in your recovery so that Megan has a credible client to work with.

Very compassionate for what she does

Getting my first DUI was a very scary experience. I had no idea what to expect. Callahan law was the very first place I went to. I was very happy with the gentlemen that consulted me. Once I decided to go with Callahan law it was Megan who was assigned to my case. She was very easy to talk to and she... was a great listener. She was very thorough with me every step of the way with complete honesty. She answered all the questions that I had with patience and understanding. Just talking with Megan made me feel so much more comfortable about my case. I had a sense from the beginning that she was there for me, and she treated me like a human being. With her knowledge and confidence she was able to significantly reduce my conviction. Megan is truly a master of her craft.

Highly Professional

Megan was extremely knowledgeable and reassuring during a very difficult time. She provided the best counsel I could have hoped for and worked on my behalf to reach a reduced sentence. I highly recommend Megan and Callahan Law.
