About Meghan Stokes
Hi, I’m Meghan Stokes! I believe that real estate is one of the most significant purchases a person can make. As an asset that typically appreciates, it serves as a powerful tool for building wealth. I work closely with individuals and investors, guiding them through their purchase and sale transactions with as little stress as possible. My goal is to help clients create lasting memories in their homes, build generational wealth for their families, and expand their investment portfolios.
On the estate planning side, I focus on protecting what matters most—homes, assets, minor children, and families—from the complexities and conflicts of probate. I do this by drafting wills, trusts, financial powers of attorney, medical directives, and other essential legal documents to ensure peace of mind.
Recognizing that the traditional law firm model often falls short in fostering meaningful, long-term attorney-client relationships, I founded the Law Office of Meghan Stokes LLC in 2013 with a client-centered approach as my top priority.
Testimonials
"Meghan Stokes is the definition of calm professionalism. While buying a home can be stressful, Meghan's expertise and demeanor keeps the transaction process smooth, even when things get a little rocky. During the process, the seller's attorney came up with an unusual request that Meghan was able to dissolve and keep the transaction moving forward, which allowed us to move into our dream home. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, you should hire Meghan Stokes for your real estate attorney."- Erinkherr,Zillow Review
