Professional and Personable

With limited experiences of having to work with attorney's I am so glad that I hired and got to work with Megan and her team. Her professionalism throughout my divorce journey was superior. She explained things to me with all possible out comes and never told me false information nor did she try and ...sugar coat things for me. She gave me sound legal advise and opportunities to ask questions and give straight forward answers. I will forever be grateful for the work she did!

Megan Bent Review

Megan has been my divorce lawyer since 2019 and has been a vital part of the process that followed. She is processional in the court room and extremally punctual. She is organized and responds to emails and calls, and really fights for her clients. More importantly, in this type of field, she became... a friend and a fighter in my corner. I didn't feel alone, and she made the entire process understandable and made me comfortable. You would be lucky to have her on your side.

An amazing Attorney and person that puts family first

With the separation at hand, I was a mess trying to figure life out and how to take care of my kids and what the next steps would be. I was confused and lost. From the first meeting with Megan Bent at Bliss Law group – Family and Divorce Law, I felt at ease for the first time in months. Megan has ...an extensive knowledge of Family/Divorce and Child Custody and law, true professionalism and caring to protect her client’s best interests. Beside all those qualities Megan brings the one thing to the table that a client truly deserves, a caring heart that not only took care of me but, a deep desire to ensure the best of care for my kids. When you need a family Law attorney you need more that someone that understands law; you need someone who can provide counsel, realistic information, and emotional understanding. Megan Bent, enabled me to relax knowing with full confidence that everything was being handled with my family’s best interest always in mind. Megan by far met all my expectations and many more. I recommend her with full confidence knowing she will always take care of your family.

Child support case Guidance

Megan is amazing, I reached out to her for legal advice regarding a child support case that I was representing myself in, b/c I reached out to Megan and she reviewed my documents and also provided me with the correct documents that I needed to file I won the case. Thanks again to her and her assistan...t Sarah for working as a team and providing great customer service.
