As an adopted child herself, with four siblings who were also adopted, she has seen firsthand the joys – and frustrations- faced by children and families as they have navigated sensitive matters such as divorce and child custody.

Meghan uses this deep personal experience to better serve her clients and to fight and advocate on their behalf. Her diverse background and experience bring a different perspective to the table, allowing her to anticipate her clients’ needs, and beyond that, to offer them a sense of comfort as they move through the legal process. Those she has worked with have appreciated not only her insight, but her compassion and drive as well.

Meghan is trained in collaborative law and maintains a broad practice in many Family Law-related areas including divorce, custody, adoptions, pre and post marital agreements. Meghan has extensive experience representing client matters involving high-profile and high-net-worth individuals. Meghan walks with her clients step-by-step through the entire process. Whatever her clients need, Meghan is ready to hit the ground running.

Persist, pivot, or concede. It’s up to us, our choice every time.
