Strong knowledge of law, patient to explain the law

(An earlier comment gave Mr. Mertz a very poor review and, while I can't speak to this specific case, I do know that an immediate family member passed away suddenly around the timeframe that the reviewer had his/her poor experience. If that review is truthful, this is the only explanation I could sug...gest, since the poor rating in that review is totally out of character with my experience with Mr. Mertz.) I had questions regarding my father's estate, specifically out-of-state creditors coming after me for his debts. (We share almost identical names.) Rob reviewed all of the communications sent to me, and formulated the proper response to get the creditors off my back. As a result, I've not had any further communications from said creditors, and my credit report does not contain any of my father's financial history.

Professional expertise at a reasonable price!

I have known Robert for several years. I am in the Financial Planning industry and Robert has been a reliable source to send clients to for estate plannning. Clients have all been very happy working with Mr. Mertz and have said their experience was very good. He is very knowledgeable in the real e...state field as well, preparing deeds and transfers of property for probate issues. He is fair and reasonable with prices and the clients have been positive about their experience with his office. I continue to recommend him for wills, power of attorney, probate, and medicaid planning.
