About

MeehanLaw, LLC is a family law firm based in Fairfield, Connecticut, with a practice history extending back to 1961. The firm serves Fairfield County and surrounding areas, offering comprehensive legal representation across the full spectrum of family law matters.

The firm's core practice areas include divorce, child custody, alimony, premarital agreements, and post-divorce modifications. MeehanLaw also handles complex high-asset divorces involving forensic income and asset evaluation, business valuation, founder's stock, stock options, and restricted stock units. Beyond traditional litigation, the firm provides mediation and collaborative divorce services designed to help clients reach cost-effective agreements and resolve disputes through alternative dispute resolution.

MeehanLaw's approach centers on recognizing that each family's circumstances are distinct. The firm emphasizes personalized attention and tailored solutions rather than one-size-fits-all strategies. Attorney Michael Meehan made history by participating in Connecticut's first virtual divorce trial, and the firm has invested in its own courtroom facility equipped for virtual legal proceedings—reflecting a commitment to leveraging modern technology in service of client needs.

The firm is led by experienced attorneys including Michael T. Meehan, Richard T. Meehan, Jr., and Richard J. Meehan, along with associates Nicole M. Riel and Allison Smalley. Client testimonials highlight the firm's professionalism, responsiveness to urgent matters, and thorough understanding of Connecticut's family court system. Clients have noted the team's ability to provide both peace of mind and practical guidance through emotionally difficult situations, and have appreciated the firm's ethical straightforwardness—including its willingness to decline representation when legal grounds are weak.

The firm's attorneys hold peer review ratings from Martindale-Hubbell, reflecting evaluation by members of the bar and judiciary on legal ability and ethical standards. MeehanLaw welcomes initial consultations and can be reached at 203-333-1888 to discuss your family law needs.
