About Megan

Megan E. Courtney is an Associate Attorney at Ciancio Ciancio Brown, P.C. and a member of the Family Law Team.  A native of Michigan and a graduate of Michigan State College of Law, Megan has been a practicing since 2011.  Her practice includes high asset divorce, high conflict divorce, divorce involving businesses and business valuation issues, drafting marital agreements, and resolving child custody disputes.  Megan also has a background in small business civil cases, Chapter 7 & Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases, and as a financial advisor.

As the child of a high conflict divorce, Megan has first-hand experience from the minor child’s perspective, and she holds the physical, emotional, and psychological protection of children as her highest priority.  Additionally, she has experienced firsthand the generational effects that a divorce can have on a family.  Megan understands that, when handled correctly, a divorce can simply be a difficult chapter in a family’s life; if handled incorrectly, it can be a life altering event for all members of the family.  Megan passionately represents her clients in a manner that consistently puts the wellbeing of the client and their children in the forefront of her practice.

Clients who have worked with Megan speak to her understanding of their wants and needs and her ability to bring those wants and needs to fruition, her ability to teach her clients complicated legal concepts, and her compassion such that each client feels empowered and in control of their case.  Regardless of the situation, rest assured that Megan can handle your case with a high-level of skill and deep empathy.

Megan strives to make the attorney-client relationship one that is positive and long lasting, rather than a necessary evil.
