Meghan was a wonderful support and calming, steady presence during a very long and tumultuous divorce. Even when the other side would try to use threats or emotional scare tactics she stayed strong and professional, relying on facts and other cases to support our side. Knowing how many cases a lawyer can be working on at once I always appreciated how quickly she got back to me and followed through with everything. I would highly recommend Meghan to anyone that is looking for a competent and intelligent lawyer to have their back.

I sought assistance from Meghan Howard during a very stressful Landlord Tenant situation, one you would think would never occur when you are a good tenant and always paid your rent on time. Having never been through any sort of legal battle before, I was very stressed and scared. I consulted with Meghan and immediately she made us feel like we were in good hands. We were able to keep moving forward with our lives as she handled the difficulties of dealing with this landlord. She is prompt, courteous, professional,well educated, and I would highly advise keeping her for any needs that may arise that she specializes in! We would not hesitate to use her again, if the need ever arose!

A few words of advice: don't let Meghan's grace and warmth distract you from the fact that she delivers. She worked with my roommates and myself this past summer settling a dispute with our landlord, and despite the fact that we, the clients, had a tough time keeping a level head throughout the process (our living situation was quite literally on the line). Stakes were high, but Meghan never even seemed phased. Not in the face of our long, mutable lists of goals; not in the face of sudden panicked emails filled with questions; nothing we or our opposition did prevented her from taking all the time we needed to understand our situation and what the next best step would be. She honestly was like a guide and advocate through the whole process. I'm greatful we were able to work with her.

I tried handling my car accident case on my own. Well, the insurance company didn't want to give me anything close to fair. So I prayed about it and I came across Megan Howard at Stopa and Associates. She helped me to settle the case for a fair amount ( more than 4.5 times what the insurance company was offering me). Thank the Lord that it all worked out without going to trial.

Family and I hired Meghan to help with custody order. She helped and was very helpful. Returned calls and or emails immediately. She helped us get what was needed to be done with the custody order.

Meghan and the rest of the Stopa & Associates team were a great resource to have during our first closing. She was very professional and had all of the necessary documents prepared and ready to go for a smooth experience. We would be more than happy to work with Meghan on future closings/legal matters!

Meghan assisted me when I was filing for divorce and lost in papers! She took the time to explaine what everything was and answered any questions I had making the entire process so much easier! Meghan is personal and professional, and I would highly recommend her!!

Megan was incredibly insightful and provided excellent representation during my divorce proceedings. She has a passion for the field and it shows in the courtroom. I highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.

So, I called Meaghan with a question about my case which is already in progress. Meaghan returned my call promptly, listened carefully and gave thoughtful and detailed answers to my concerns. I have engaged more than a few attorneys in my life and found that often they want to direct the conversation very specifically to a concise legal point and go no further. My current attorney has that drawback. It's frustrating for the client and a bit unproductive. I needed a bit more and Meaghan freely answered all my questions. In the end her answers were extremely productive for my decision-making, technically and legally right on point. I am already represented on this matter but it will likely result in further litigation at some point in the future and Meaghan will represent me. Great job Meaghan.

Meghan responded quickly and throughly to my emails and calls. She is very knowledgeable and professional. I had many questions through the process, and Meghan was there with answers. Meghan took the time to find out what was important to me. I would definitely recommend Meghan.
