Client Reviews for Megan M. Gilbreth

Jay B. Recommends March 13, 2020

Great advice on real estate law and contract law Megan assisted me with a general warranty deed for agricultural land that had a few issues from one party not performing their side of the bargain. One of the parties did not pay the amount of money as stipulated in the contract. Megan was able to help both parties avoid costly courtroom litigation. She was very responsive and was an expert on both the real estate aspects of the deed as well as the elder law implications since the transaction was between two family members. Highly recommend her to anyone in need of a great attorney. View More

Not knowledgeable or helpful I feel like the Blake Law Group pulled a bait and switch on me. I originally retained Jennifer Behme, whom seemed very knowledgeable, then was assigned Megan Gilberth without explanation. Megan Gilberth has absolutely no business practicing family law. She is not knowledgeable on the subject. I hired the Blake Law Group to represent me to get arrears removed and obtain a modification of my support order. I found more information on my case on Google then I did from her. She does not respond to emails, calls, or voicemails. I only met with her a few weeks before going to court, she didn’t remember meeting me before while in court. The results in court were laughable. I am now in worse shape than before hiring the Blake Law Group. Ms. Gilberth refused to fight for me. I already felt like a caged animal because of a narcissistic ex-wife that has manipulated me and my children. Now I’m in debt to a horrible attorney with a resolution that I could have been had without any representation. She knew the history of the judge we were to argue my case in front of but failed to tell me that most of my evidence would not be admissible. The whole case could have been over for the $500 retainer. $10,000 later and I am worse off than before. After complaining about Megan’s service to the managing partner, Edward Blake, the firm withdrew from my case. View More
