  • I recommend David Merrigan.
  • I used David greater than 3 years ago.
  • David handled my Wills / Living Wills matter.
  • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.
Client Review: David and those in his firm have handled a variety of legal situations for me and my family with expertise, kindness and expeditiousness.

Recently, in the case of my sister's death, David and his firm went above and beyond in the legal and personal care of me and my sister in her last months.

If there was a level above "excellent" that would be my rating for David and his family firm.

  • I recommend David Merrigan.
  • I used David 6-12 months ago.
  • David handled my Tax matter.
  • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.
Client Review: David is very honest and straightforward. He is thorough and persistent and has always been very responsive whenever we have had questions. We started going to him to prepare our annual tax returns, but found ourselves calling upon him for any legal matters, including real estate transactions as well as setting up wills and legal trusts. If you need legal advice, David is the one you should call.

Client Review: My wife and I recently purchased our first home and David was able to guide us along the way and make the process seem really easy. We had an issue of a neighbors fence encroaching onto our property and David was quick to lay out our options and help us with some great advice. I think we came to the right conclusion and are very happy in our new home. Thanks David!

Client Review: I have worked with David Merrigan for over 10 years, and absolutely do recommend him to family and friends. He has helped me with a variety of things including taxes, estate issues, closings and more. He is professional, easy to work with, accessible, knowledgable, and timely. Both he and his staff are very organized and do a great job of communicating and keeping me informed. I am certain that I will continue to work with Dave for many years to come.

Client Review: We have had David Merrigan handle all of our legal needs since we moved to New England twelve years ago. My sister recommended his office and we have been truly satisfied with his legal work since. We have called him for advice on numerous occasions and have always been satisified with his legal expertise. We enjoy working with him because he is such a nice person. I would highly recommend him to anybody that needed expert legal advice.

  • I recommend David Merrigan.

  • David handled my Real Estate matter.

Client Review: I cannot sing this man's praises enough. I have used David's services for five years now and can't imagine succeeding in my business the way I have without him!!! I was audited and EVERY little detail was accurate! David has saved me thousands and thousands of dollars. When I was nervous about being audited he was right there every step of the way reassuring me everything would be ok!!! He has also helped my son, a merchant marine save thousands of dollars! He not only works on your current life but helps you to plan ahead saving you even more money! Even more important than all the money he has saved us due to his integrity and honesty, he is fun to be around!!!

and he likes it when you bring him dinner for those late in the day appointments!!!!

  • I recommend David Merrigan.
  • I used David 1-3 years ago.
  • David handled my Car / Auto Accident matter.
  • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.
Client Review: Mr. Merrigan is that rare lawyer that makes you feel confident that he is looking out for your best interests and not his own. He represented me well when I was up against a big insurance company and we won. He has subsequently guided my family through a myriad of legal issues such as wills and estates.

Mr. Merrigan always provided carefully considered advice and he is always willing to listen to my ideas and concerns.

David Merrigan's most admirable qualities as a lawyer are "honesty and integrity".

I wholeheartedly and without any reservation recommend Mr. Merrigan.

Outstanding experience

  • I recommend David Merrigan.
  • I used David 6-12 months ago.
  • David handled my Residential matter.
  • I have previously worked with no lawyers.
Client Review: My wife and I used Dave's services when we were buying our first condo. At first, we were hesitant to hire a lawyer, but we're really glad we did.

Dave caught an item in the purchase and sale contract that we never would have noticed. It was a clause allowing the seller to renege on the deal at any time before the closing date, leaving us in the cold. Dave demanded that we be entitled to damages in case the seller voided the contract. Sure enough, a month from our closing, the seller decided not to sell us the unit.

Without Dave, we would have been entitled to nothing, but because he had insisted on damages in the contract, we received a check from the seller. After paying Dave's fee, paying for an appraisal, and paying for a home inspection, we were still left with several thousand dollars, which definitely helped soften the blow of our deal falling through.

Dave kept us in the loop the entire time and responded quickly to my phone calls and emails. More importantly, he is trustworthy. He went the extra mile for us but did not ask for extra compensation in return.

We will definitely use Dave's services again in the future.
