Testimonials

“Meggin was both knowledgeable and compassionate during my difficult divorce. She responded quickly to my questions, kept me informed during the entire process and did her best to keep my expenses at a minimum for the nine months of the ordeal. Her kindness is much appreciated and her expertise made it so that my priorities in the divorce were achieved to the best extent possible. She is a good person and a good lawyer.”

Terry

“The first time I had my estate papers written by another attorney, my anxiety level was off the charts. I put off updating my estate for 2 years to avoid that first attorney and the difficulty I anticipated. When I found Meggin Rutherford, my anxiety dissipated. She asked the right questions, patiently clarified terms I did not understand, and put the estate package together quickly and accurately. She understood every detail I wanted to include and actually made me feel ‘smart’ for thinking of them. I highly recommend this law firm for your estate needs. This was a breeze!!! Thank you.”

Linda

I used Jodie to craft my estate planning documents. Everything about the process was seamless and made me feel supportive. Jodie did an amazing job of explaining the process and documents. She took the time to ask and learn about my concerns and goals. She also was great at identifying gaps and discussing with me how to address them. I highly recommend Jodie and the firm.

Alexia McCaskill

I have been working with Meggin for about 4 years and I can not believe that I never thought before to give her and her firm the most amazing review possible. Meggin has helped me in so many ways throughout the legal battles with my ex-husband. As a single mom who has been a student struggling to start a career as a counselor, Meggin has been gracious, compassionate and generous to help me with with my struggle against an ex who makes almost 4x’s the money that I do. She and everyone in her office have provided incredible services and I trust her completely in this process. Make no mistake, there are plenty of attorney’s that will take advantage of situations to get billable hours, Meggin and her firm are not those attorneys. They are diligent, resourceful, and an ever-present help!! You will not regret choosing this firm!
