HIRING FORREST WILL BE THE BEST DECISION YOU MAKE FOR YOUR CASE!

We hired Forrest to defend us for a possession and paraphanalia charge, in two separate towns. Forrest knows this area of law inside and out and is extremely well liked and well respected by not only his colleagues, but by the judges. He has a kind, yet direct and insightful way about him. He is o...ut for his client's best interest only, is an excellent negotiator and knows how far to go, in filing motions etc. to achieve the best outcome. Finally, his prices are fair and upfront. Forrest will not disappoint you and you will not achieve a better overall outcome with any other attorney. We highly recommend Forrest Merrill.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
