Megan O'Brien Stanley

I was referred to Megan & her office in 2015. I was told she was the most affordable yet powerful lawyer they had. She proved to be that and so much more. Megan is supremely efficient with her time, saving me thousands of dollars. She is clear & authoritative in instructing you on the best actions to... protect yourself & focus on your goal, with a compassionate nature that calms you thru even the hardest of times. She is thoroughly creative with her arguments & her communication skills are superb. Megan knows judges & their temperaments, she over-prepares you for the courtroom, and she will ensure no details are missed in presenting the most effective argument to win your case. I used Megan not just once, but TWICE to overcome a nearly insurmountable assault of accusations & court filings by my ex in an attempt to steal full custody of our daughter. To show how proficient Megan will be for you as well, imagine the workload involved in fighting and winning against: two domestic violence protection orders alleging drug abuse, physical abuse, & sex abuse, two CPS investigations, a Kirkland PD detective investigation, & overcoming a severely hostile ex and a biased therapist that submitted increasingly varied testimony against facts. With all those stacked against me, in 2016 & repeated in 2019, Megan won. And to add to the evidence of her amazing forethought & genuine desire to protect her clients, Megan coached me to file a Contempt charge against my ex in an effort to prevent the lies & tragic loss of my daughter for 6 months at a time from happening again. Due to Megan’s hard work, we won & my ex was forced to pay a portion of fees as a consequence, & now I can rest easy knowing my daughter & I are protected for the foreseeable future. Above all, what makes Megan unique and the best lawyer you could hope for is she CARES. She is smart, committed, responsive to every message no matter the time, and will do everything in her power to fight for your cause. Thank you, Megan, so much for BOTH of your cases with me. I don’t believe anyone could’ve done what you did for us, especially not just defending against actions, but then being proactive and forcing lasting consequences the other way. You are simply - THE BEST!

My case was unusual, involving dissolving a long marriage without divorcing. Megan was patient, smart, creative and understanding. She was available and aware of the details of my case whenever I contacted her. I have absolute confidence in her integrity and ability. She was a pleasure to work with u...nder difficult and involved conditions.

I'm very glad I had Megan to help me resolve my custody case. She was always thorough, careful, very responsive, and completely on top of the situation, including recent changes in the law that could affect our case and strategies to deal with them. It felt great to have someone like her to trust wi...th my case. As a person, she's someone you'd enjoy being friends with - she made a hard thing much easier.
