Excellent Experience

Megan was personable, timely and extremely helpful making our wills. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Posted by anonymous | April 17, 2009

Smart, affordable, and caring legal advisor

Megan listened to our concerns and thoughtfully advised us on our estate planning needs. She prepared our wills and other estate documents for a flat fee, encouraging us to be open and honest with what we thought she should charge. She timely responded to all phone calls and delivered things when she... said that she would. Megan is a very personable and caring lawyer that seems genuinely committed to helping others. We strongly recommend her.

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.
