Merlyn Lee Meinerts

Merlyn Meinerts, is an intelligent, caring, expert attorney. He knew what questions to ask to reveal the truth, presented key elements for our case and brought in experts to confirm the documentation as needed. If you are searching for a lawyer who truly cares and presents the evidence in a well-or...chestrated manner, Merlyn is the one.

I had the privilege of working with Merlyn on a few different occasions. He is extremely knowledgeable and will guide you every step of the way. He and his fantastic staff carry a lot of respect by their peers and the court. Merlyn will be upfront and honest to your situation and what he can do for ...you. He and his staff will work for you and provide you the best outcome possible . I highly recommend Merlyn and his team.

I worked with Merlyn on my case that became a four-year and a half year journey, including multiple mediations, numerous motions, an eight-day trial, and an appeal by the other party after we prevailed in Court, then Supreme Court. At the end of it all, I am so thankful that I chose Merlyn to represe...nt me. I was referred to Merlyn by another attorney as “he was the best in the business” as she put when it came to this family law issue of custody. When I came to him, I told him of my case and he spoke to me about the probable outcome, and the amount I would need to invest in the case. He then told me the possible long journey we may be on together over time. After meeting with 3 other attorney’s I knew that he was the right person for this case. Merlyn was straight to the point and had no emotion and was going to deal with the facts and follow the best practices to get this case completed. End result my daughter was protected from the issues that concerned the mother, I just followed his course of actions, and watched as he won every case with the facts. He understands and knows the law and all cases to site as examples to help the judge make a ruling in my favor. The result was even more satisfying because the opposing attorney was a former judge in Hennepin County. Merlyn did not waste time talking to me, nor padding the bill, he did what was right and fair. I want to thank he and Stephanie his paralegal that have been with me on this 4 plus year journey. Feel free to contact me for a verbal referral if e needed

When I searched for a divorce lawyer 4 years ago, I did the whole ‘free hour’ tour of consultations and met with 5 different attorneys. I did this to not only get a consensus on what my situation would involve, but everything that may result from this process and to find out how they we’re going to ...get me the best, fair deal possible. Merlyn Meinerts not only stood out from them all, but proved later to be miles above and 3 steps ahead of the others. As soon as you walk into any mediation session or any court room, Merlyn’s stature instantly attracts immediate respect and poise. As a physically intimidating man to some, his years of experience and negotiating / courtroom prowess are second to none. To this day I still remember the look on my ex’s face as it instantly turned from a ‘Haha, I got this’ to an ‘Ohh damn’ as we walked in the door. Even better was her lawyers face did the exact same thing. That moment along with the results Merlyn was able to deliver are priceless. My advice to all – just meet with him and you will see for yourself. He’s extremely matter of fact with compassion for you and your situation rolled into one. He will tell you what the law states, what he can do and what he can’t do, so there is no false expectations. However his true craft is being able to forecast every opponent’s move and then telling you what his next three moves will be for the win. It’s so amazing it makes me wish I had popcorn to enjoy while it all plays out right in front of you. Remember, it takes twice as much effort to get something back that was lost or taken from you. So set the tone right away.

Merlyn Meinerts is not only a skilled professional attorney; he is compassionate. When I began to cry in our first meeting, the Kleenex was pushed my direction, and I was allowed to cry. I felt completely heard and understood from the moment I stepped into his office. He represented me in my 2...010 divorce. I was given excellent advice and wise counsel. When going through a divorce, you question EVERYTHING. Merlyn provided me the support I needed. To this day, I believe I have recommended him to at least 8 people. They have all appreciated his expertise as well.
