Very satisfied with end results

Although it may appear that this top rating seems a bit high on the mark, I can state with certainty that Jerry Merola is the real deal when it comes to bankruptcy cases. I was a newbie to the bankruptcy process, nor had I worked with a lawyer before, but Merola + his team walked me through it step b...y step without leaving me feeling befuddled in any way. Communication was constant, clear, and prompt (esp. via email), and I was well prepped to know what to expect + respond at court. As long as I did my share of the work properly, Merola + his team made sure they did theirs.

Great Personality

I just finished a problematic case with Mr. Merola and was very happy with his demeanor. I would definitely use him again.

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.
