Jack Merrill Jr.

I consulted with Atty. Merrill on two occasions about the same employment-related case because he had been recommended. He was extremely pessimistic about the prospects of pursuing my case and suggested that it would be a long, hard road and a long-shot. Perhaps he thought it was "tough love," but I ...knew I had a case. When I mentioned "emotional damages" to him he even rolled his eyes. Well, long-story-short, I pursued my case without a lawyer, and in less than 1 year, I reached a settlement agreement with my employer for $50,000 for emotional distress. I'm glad I trusted my instincts.

Jack patiently explained my case in terms that I could understand, answered all of my questions (I had many questions throughout the process), was clear about what to expect and helped me feel more confident. In court Jack is a very talented, adept professional and it was obvious to me and I think e...veryone else that he excels at what he does. I had a positive experience and if I find myself in need of representation in the future, I would not consult with anyone else.

I and several of my peers had an issue with a large area employer and we sought separate lawyers. I found Jack from an employment law website. The attorneys for these other employees told them there was really nothing they could do. Jack was the only attorney that found a path due to his knowledge... of employment laws at both the state and federal level. He brought my issue to a fair resolution. It’s not fun challenging a goliath of a firm, but we really found a friend with Jack, and if you are ever in an unfortunate circumstance like that I hope you consider him.
