Going through a divorce can feel frightening and uncertain, but Megan\u2019s partnership, attention, and responsiveness give clients a sense of control. Megan draws on her prior experience as a paralegal to manage cases that involve a broad variety of legal issues and personality types, including cases involving substance abuse. This experience enables her to choose the best approach to resolve issues that may arise during a divorce process, from seeking <a href=\"https:\/\/gbfamilylaw.com\/services\/child-custody\/\">child custody<\/a> modification to navigating difficult personalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A strong advocate for families, Megan excels at advising clients as to how to achieve their goals while still putting their children\u2019s interests first. She urges clients to take a holistic view of their family law case and consider creative parenting plans, recognizing that family law is not just about crunching numbers on a spreadsheet or dividing up days on a calendar; it is about restructuring a family in a way that enables clients and their children to move forward on positive footing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Megan recognizes that clients going through a divorce may be tempted to dwell on what they\u2019ve left behind. She encourages them to make the transition to looking at all the new possibilities for their lives. With a combination of sound legal counsel and practical advice, Megan guides clients through the divorce process using goal-oriented decision-making that positions them for a better future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Megan\u2019s path to becoming a family lawyer entailed attending law school while working full time, raising kids, going to classes at night, and graduating at the top of her class. It took determination and grit; qualities Megan strives to bring to her clients.
