Megan Wade
Connecticut appellate attorney for civil, family, and criminal appeals in CT
Megan Wade is a Connecticut appellate attorney with nearly a decade of focused experience representing clients in civil appeals, family appeals, and criminal appeals across the state. She is the founder of Connecticut Appellate Law Firm (CTALF), a practice dedicated entirely to appellate litigation, consulting, and strategy. Her work centers on helping trial attorneys, law firms, and individuals navigate the complex Connecticut appeals process with clarity, precision, and trusted legal insight.
Before founding CTALF, Megan practiced at a Hartford-based appellate firm, handling appeals before both the Connecticut Appellate Court and the Connecticut Supreme Court. Her approach is detail-oriented, client-centered, and focused on collaboration—whether reframing a legal issue, strengthening a record for appeal, or preparing a persuasive appellate brief.
What sets Megan apart is not just her depth of appellate experience, but her ability to distill complex legal issues into focused, strategic arguments. She works closely with trial counsel to identify appealable issues, develop strong legal theories, and build records that hold up under appellate review. As a Connecticut appellate lawyer, she has represented both appellants and appellees and understands the key decisions that shape the outcome of an appeal.
At CTALF, Megan offers appellate representation across Connecticut, handling matters in the Connecticut Appellate Court and the Connecticut Supreme Court. The firm provides full appellate representation as well as discrete services, including legal research, post-trial motions, and mooting. Across all services, CTALF remains committed to delivering thorough, thoughtful, and effective advocacy in Connecticut appeals.
Megan is also active in the legal community and serves as Vice Chairwoman of Community Partners in Action.
