Hire this Lawyer!
Merritt is a bulldog. He defends his clients' interests. He knows the law and how to use it to the best advantage for his clients. I know. I am a client.
"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Merritt since before I went to law school. He has handled major cases, a few famous cases, and I see he's managed to practice long enough to work with his son. He is both skilled and durable. He also opened a door for me when I didn't know what to be when I grew up. Thank you."
"Outstanding knowledgable attorney with a sharp, attentive professional support staff. Hard working, compassionate and highly respected by his peers and judges alike."
