About Megan
Megan Irish earned a B.A. in Rhetoric from the University of California, Berkeley in 2004. She went on to law school at the University of San Francisco School of Law, completing her J.D. in 2010 after beginning her studies in 2007. Her academic background pairs analytical training in rhetoric with formal legal education, equipping her with a foundation in written and oral argument.
After law school she began practicing law in California. Over the years she has worked on matters that required detailed legal research, careful drafting of court documents, and direct client communication. Her early training in rhetoric informs how she frames issues for judges and clients. She approaches problem-solving with attention to structure and clarity, and she has developed a working familiarity with California procedural rules.
Irish’s day-to-day work emphasizes practical legal writing and client counseling. She spends significant time preparing briefs and other filings, and she places weight on clear, persuasive explanations for clients who are often unfamiliar with legal process. Colleagues describe her as methodical in preparing factual records and deliberate in assessing legal options. She tends to prioritize swift resolution where appropriate, while preserving avenues for further litigation when necessary.
Outside of written work, she is experienced in preparing witnesses and extracting key facts from complex narratives. Her rhetoric background shows in how she organizes testimony and distills complicated issues into concise narratives. That combination of advocacy skills and document-focused practice shapes how she advises individuals and businesses that come to her office for assistance.
She is currently an attorney at Dolan Law Office in California. At the firm she continues to represent clients and manage casework, balancing research, drafting, and client meetings. Her current practice concentrates on serving clients within California.
