About Megan M.
Megan M. Nolan earned her J.D. from Saint Louis University School of Law in 2009 after completing a B.A. at Murray State University in 2006. Her time in law school coincided with early practical experience that helped shape her transition from student to practicing attorney. She built a foundation in legal research and client service that carried into her first legal positions.
Nolan began her legal career at Klar, Izsak & Stenger, serving as a law clerk in 2007 and returning in 2009 as a contract lawyer. Those early roles gave her exposure to day-to-day courtroom preparation and case management. In 2010 she joined Blake Law Group, PC as an associate, and two years later moved to Stange Law Office, LLC where she continued to handle a broad caseload.
In 2013 she became a partner at Johnson, Johnson & Nolan. As a firm partner, Nolan took on greater responsibility for supervising junior lawyers and managing client relationships. Her rise to partnership came after several years of steady advancement through litigation support and firm practice duties.
Nolan is admitted to practice in both Missouri and Illinois. She has held memberships in professional associations since the late 2000s, joining The Missouri Bar and the American Bar Association in 2009. She also maintains membership in the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis, where she has been listed since 2009, and the Illinois State Bar Association beginning in 2010. Those affiliations reflect ongoing engagement with legal developments across two states.
Her work requires juggling matters in courts across state lines. She handles procedural strategy, client counseling, and motions practice. She also oversees case preparation and coordinates filings and hearings. Colleagues describe her approach as steady and pragmatic; she balances courtroom demands with the administrative duties of partnership.
Outside of casework, Nolan’s background includes supervising associates and helping shape office practice. Her career path shows a steady trajectory from clerkship to contract work, then to associate positions and firm leadership. That progression informed how she manages teams and allocates resources at Johnson, Johnson & Nolan.
She practices at Johnson, Johnson & Nolan, handling matters across Missouri and Illinois state courts.
