Top Notch Attorney
I have had Merrill handle matters for me and would recommend him to everyone. Not only is he competent he treats me as if I am his only client. He keeps me informed without drowning me in legalese. If you need an attorney to handle your divorce or other litigation in the area give him a call.

"I highly recommend Merrill. Merrill is an extremely knowledgeable attorney who is confident both in and out of the courtroom. He takes the time to understand clients and their situations so that he can make the best recommendations for them in their lives. Merrill knows how to cater his services to each unique client because he truly understands that no two divorces are ever the same. He treats everyone with the utmost respect, but definitely knows the law to protect his clients and steer them in the right direction through the entire process. He is able to assist clients in being realistic with their situations and expectations. He is also a wonderful father and his personal experience of being a strong family man helps him truly understand the significance of so many family issues. If my family member or friend were going through a divorce, I would definitely recommend that they give Merrill a call."
