Rebecca Megel

As an attorney with The Legacy Elder Law Center, Rebecca is passionate about helping families find peace of mind and confidence through personalized estate and elder law planning. She takes a practical, problem-solving approach – developing strategies that protect assets, preserve dignity, and give clients a clear path forward.

Born to what her mother affectionately calls “mature” parents and now a mother to a young child herself, Rebecca understands the balance of caring for aging parents while raising a family. As a member of the “Sandwich Generation,” she brings empathy, clarity, and personal insight to helping clients navigate life’s most important transitions.

Rebecca grew up in the Burke Centre community of Fairfax County and earned her B.S. from James Madison University and her Juris Doctor from George Mason University School of Law. Before focusing her practice on estate planning and administration, she gained broad legal experience with a nonprofit organization, the U.S. Department of Justice, and a nationwide bankruptcy firm.
