Megan Becher has been associated with the firm and practicing special district law since 2001. She became a shareholder of the firm in 2008. Notwithstanding this, Megan’s experience with special districts began in 1996 when she began work as a paralegal in the Houston-based public finance department of an international law firm. In order to be more directly involved with facilitating the development of communities and establishing meaningful client relationships, Megan moved from Houston to Denver in 1998 to attend law school. Megan joined McGeady Sisneros in 1999 as a law clerk and, since that time, has gained substantial experience in representing both developer and district clients through organizing special districts, conducting district elections, assuring statutory compliance, facilitating relationships among public and private sectors, performing due diligence related to special district matters in land acquisitions, and facilitating the financing of public infrastructure.
