Megan Duckens

Megan brings a calm, early-morning efficiency to the team—the kind that makes everything run smoother without ever calling attention to itself. She’s usually well into her day before the sun comes up, which might explain why she’s always the most put-together person in the room. Before joining Hardie Alcozer, she worked in a boutique law firm supporting attorneys across estate planning, probate, family law, criminal matters, and civil cases. Her background, paired with years of adapting to new cities while her husband served in the Air Force, means she’s quick to learn, highly organized, and unflappable in fast-moving environments.

Clients and colleagues know Megan for her steady presence, thoughtful communication, and ability to keep complex matters moving forward with quiet confidence. She’s the person you want handling your details: precise, reliable, and always two steps ahead.

Outside the office, Megan is an unapologetic early riser. Most mornings start with a 4 a.m. walk with her dog, Blue, followed by strong coffee and a good dose of fresh air. She loves cozy evenings at home with her husband, trying new restaurants, and—true to her priorities—having dessert before dinner. Her favorite snacks include Skittles, Lemonheads, and, in her view, pizza (which she firmly believes qualifies as a snack).

"Hardie Alcozer breaks all the stereotypes of lawyers not being good and caring people"

“I recommend them most highly! Everyone I have worked with there has been skillful, professional, approachable, punctual, and organized.
