Nicholas Mermiges

Nick has a way of making tough situations easier to go through. He treats everyone with dignity and respect. He is thorough and knowledgeable. In my case, the opposing party and counsel were making rather unreasonable demands. Nick suggested a course of action and the likely consequences and possible... outcomes. Ultimately, the opposition came back with a very reasonable settlement only because Nick wanted the truth to come out. I recommend him. He will fight for you!

Nicholas and team worked tirelessly for me during my divorce, turning a frightening situation into a bearable moment. My ex, at first was willing to simply leave, then after consulting her attorney saw monetary compensation. Nick and his team worked hard for me dealing with her attorney, and at the... end of the day made it simple and fair. She ended up leaving as initially desired since she cheated. He even led me down a path to not be bitter but rather have a simple and effective and divorce uncontested. Yes I had to wait a year, but it was worth it. My ex and myself both got what we wanted with minimal issues on my end. Nick even helped with a tax issue I had due to the divorce and it turned out in my favor. He's amazing, responsive, helpful and honest, and will fight hard to help his clients. His reputation is top notch in the area and most other attorneys worry when he is representing you. Pricing is great, but most importantly you get amazing representation. My ex's attorney asked for more money from her to finalize the divorce.....Nick didn't do that as he is an honest attorney and fair. I don't want anyone to go through a divorce, but if you have to......hire Nick Mermiges, you won't regret it. He does what he says, works hard for his clients, and is honest. He puts in the extra effort to protect his clients. I personally couldn't have been happier with the outcome Nick provided.

Nick took on an extremely difficult case for me that lasted over 3 years. In the courtroom and in negotiations his actions were nothing less than brilliant. Nick is an incredibly driven attorney who focused on the end game versus being caught up in the emotional back and forth that is usually assoc...iated with family court. If you are looking for someone to coddle you and beat around the bush on possible outcomes - this may not be the attorney for you. If you are looking for a winner, someone who will champion your personal cause, and an attorney that knows the Family Court system in South Carolina - this is your guy. 10/10, would hire again.

Nick truly was my life saver. I was going through a horrible divorce and my previous lawyer abandoned me. I called Nick late on a Friday night and he in two days had me prepared for an emergency hearing which concluded better than I imagined. From that point on he guided me, supported me, and ultima...tely won me my divorce. There will never be enough words to describe my admiration and respect for what Nick represents. His passion for helping others is beyond measure. He knows the system and laws inside and out, yet is keen to what his clients need and is able to explain the process in laymen’s terms. I must have asked a million questions and he always took the time to explain in detail so I completely understood. Nick is the best there is in not only Columbia but I would say the entire state. I can see why he is well respected by other lawyers and judges as well. If you need someone who can turn what you think is the impossible into the possible, Nick is that person hands down. I truly owe my new life and freedom to him.

Hiring Mr. Mermiges was the best thing I could have done. Child custody battles are horrible and stressful, but through Nicholas’ calming demeanor and knowledge of family law, he helped me get though the most difficult situation of my life. He paid attention to all the details and held the other pa...rties accountable throughout the process. My happy outcome would not have been possible without Nicholas’ expertise and human compassion.
