Megan first represented me back in 2015 to assist me with child support issues and handled it very well, she advised and told me all options and I never felt like she offered false hope (for lack of a better description). When she communicates you will understand her and know with confidence what is going on and what to expect. I was so amazed how Megan handled all the different situations out side of court and inside she became the only person I trusted when dealing with the family courts. Now around April 2016 My youngest son of three kids wanted to live with me for his High school years, the Short story is the mom wasn't going to let it happen without a fight. Now before all this I went though seven different attorneys over the years before and each one typically advised to keep your head down and out of court because you will lose every single time. Megan was the first to say and I quote "Hell no you can win". Honestly deep down I didn't believe her (it was a defensive thing and I was used to getting beat up all the time in court) but I wanted to fight for what my son wanted and he wanted to be with dad. I asked Megan please do whatever it takes and let me know what you need. Megan always offered options to save money any time she thought I could do something but in my case it was best I had zero interaction with my ex wife. Megan quickly caught on to the... characteristics of my ex and handled things again amazingly well. Now even though It was my name on all the court papers the reality was she was fighting on behalf of my son and what he wanted so she won that for him. The little guy is not so little anymore and will joining the Marines in just a few months of this review, I missed out on his elementary and middle school years but thanks to Megan and her team's efforts I was able to have the last four years with him. Nothing is a guarantee in life and Megan was always very real about this with me so I never once felt like she offered me false hope to just make me feel better. I'm really not good at this and doubt I am doing her justice here but I am now at the light at the end of the tunnel (June 9th, 2020) and I will finally be free of family courts and it feels damn good. Here is what I believe the secret is, when you hire on some one like Megan you must understand she is the expert, let her do what she is good at and fight for you. Your job is to always be 100% honest with her, give her all the ammunition you can AND LET HER DECIDE WHAT TO USE. Be as responsive and helpful as you can and help her help you and again you must be 100% honest. Seriously do you want to be that person where your champion is fighting for you and they get blindsided by something you should have informed them about? I hope not because she deserves better clients than that. With all that said she will always be considered a friend of the family and anyone needing to work with the family courts can not go wrong being represented by Megan. God forbid my sons ever go thought what I went through but if... I know who to call.

After interviewing several lawyers, it was an easy decision to select Attorney Phillips to handle my divorce. Megan was easy to talk to, has a great demeanor and did a great job of keeping me informed along the way. I could count on Megan to get things done in a timely manner. I would recommend her to anyone who need a competent, caring attorney.

When you have to hire a lawyer it's usually not under the best circumstances and there's a lot of stress and emotions involved. The first time I spoke with Megan on the phone I knew she was the perfect lawyer to represent me. She's a good listener and excellent at sorting out the facts from the emotions. When we started litigation, the other party tried to throw all kinds of irrelevant information into the case, and Megan was amazing at keeping my case on track and and to the point. There's SO much that goes on in the legal process and it can be very confusing, but Megan was good at explaining next steps and timelines. A lot of our work together was waiting for the paperwork between the lawyers, courts, and judicial system to run its course, so be patient, but know Megan is on top of it all and working hard to get you the results you want.

I was fairly new to living in Dane County and in desperate need of advice from a divorce attorney. I contacted Megan Phillips after reading reviews on AVVO. I sent Megan a message over the weekend via AVVO and she responded back to me immediately that same day. We went back and forth over the next several days with questions and advice from her I was blown away at the very beginning by her responsiveness, listening skills, expert knowledge regarding complicated issues in my case and the feeling that she gave me that she was there for me. I always felt confident that she was in my corner. My ex husband tried to get maintenance from me....He did not get it and everything else was resolved in the best way possible for me. Very happy with the outcome. I highly recommend Attorney Megan Phillips.....I was so fortunate to have found her.

Megan was very helpful throughout my whole divorce process, she answered all the questions I had in a quick timely manner and everything was done right on time and helped make everything go very smoothly, she was very professional and personable!

I decided to meet for a consultation with Megan Phillips for my divorce after reading all of the reviews on this website. I have to admit, I was somewhat skeptical about the number of great reviews she had compared to other attorneys on the website, but after I met with her, I realized why she had so many excellent reviews. She really took the time to listen to me and understand my situation and what I wanted. Every time I contacted her by email, she got back to me very quickly. She was great at explaining the answers to all of my questions in a way that was very easy for me to understand. Whenever I had to make a decision about how to proceed, she explained all of my options and advised me on what she thought would be the best course of action so I could make an informed decision. She helped make a difficult process as easy and painless as possible for me. I would highly recommend hiring Megan Phillips for a divorce.

Megan Phillips represented my daughter during her divorce. Megan was extremely patient and understanding during this time with my daughter. She made sure my daughter understood each step, what was expected from her and what was going to happen during the entire process. She made sure my daughter and granddaughter were protected by the law, now and in the future. The way she handled my now ex son-in-law made it very clear we had made the right choice. I would recommend (and have recommended) Megan to anyone that needs an attorney. She is very knowledgeable, patient, understanding and puts her client’s needs above all.

Attorney Megan Phillips is that perfect mixture of intelligence, brains and common sense that you could only hope to encounter in the trying situations that divorce brings with it. She is calming at the most tense and trying of times, and makes careful and fiscally sensitive plans so that schedules and budgets are met. Where other attorneys would have balked at the fundamental elements of my case, involving complex jurisdictional and multi-state law, Megan welcomed the complexity when it was necessary and otherwise streamlined the process to include me rather than overwhelm me with decisions as they presented themselves. I highly recommend Megan to those who want to get it done right the first time, and walk out of the process with their head held high.

Megan represented me in what turned out to be an acrimonious divorce settlement. She very was thoughtful, informative and thorough in describing the various stages of the process. From the drafting of the temporary stipulated order to the settlement mediation to the final marital settlement agreement and ensuing QDRO, Megan was always there with personal support and professional service. She's also been very helpful with follow-up issues/questions more than a year after finalization of the divorce. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an ethical, hard-working divorce attorney!

Megan has helped me with my case in every way possible. She has kept me well informed and updated on how my case is progressing. All of my questions have been answered completely and in a very prompt manner. She has demonstrated knowledge with my type of case and I am completely satisfied with her advice and direction. I have no doubt I am well represented by Megan.

Megan was recommended to me and I contacted her out of the blue. From our first communications I found her level of preparedness unique; initially exemplified when she, unlike any other attorney I'd ever worked with, presented an agenda to me at our first meeting. Throughout the course of handling my case she regularly impressed me with her thorough yet timely responses to evolving events and she was always willing to explain the legal issues and outcomes in detail. Megan at all times took the high road, displaying a high level of professionalism while pointedly presenting our arguments and ably "persuading" the other side of the error of their ways. In the end I was extremely satisfied with the outcome of my case and look forward to working again with Megan if the need arises.
