Megan’s 5 Star Client Reviews
“Where do I begin, in 41 years, I’ve never been arrested so when I found myself being arrested for a DWI it was one of the most stressful and scariest times that I’ve had to deal with because in that moment and the months to follow, I had zero control over what would happen. Finding Megan was the easy part. The day after my arrest, I googled best DWI attorney in Montana and her firm was at the top. I immediately reached out and within minutes I was on the phone with Megan explaining my encounter.
After our consultation I knew immediately she was the attorney for me and retaining her was the best decision I could’ve made. Megan was prompt, informative, and extremely knowledgeable of the law. She made this extremely stressful process less stressful by communicating and keeping me up to date with a step by step process. Not only did Megan get my DWI charge completely dismissed, she saved my job and my livelihood. If you are seeking an attorney that is passionate, knowledgeable and very good at what they do, Holloway and Hulling is where you need to place your trust! Thank you Megan for everything you did for me!!”

I would recommend Megan, or anyone, from Holloway & Hulling for any of your legal matters! Thank you, one million times over!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Megan and how she helped and handled everything for me. Megan showed compassion, empathy and understanding from the very beginning. She patiently answered my questions, explained everything clearly to me, and helped put me at ease through the process. She is professional, knowledge, efficient, and you can see with her experience and great working relationships with the people around her, just how amazing she is. Megan took initiative and resolved things as quickly as possible. She really deserves more than 5 stars, highly recommend.”
