Review of Tyler Merrill

Working with Tyler Merrill for my divorce process was an all around good experience. I recommend Tyler as his service fees/rates are competitive, he’s very familiar with divorce and dissolution laws and process in Washington State (mine was in King County), and provides helpful counsel, advice and gu...idance throughout the process. He is communicative, timely in his responses and works very effectively via a remote relationship.

Consultant

Highly knowledgeable and very responsive. I never felt left in the dark throughout the legal process with Tyler. He provided clarity with every question asked and strived to make things as simple and convenient for me as possible. I really appreciate the extra steps he took to prevent me from having ...to take extra steps. To sum up, it was thanks to Tyler that I had such peace of mind throughout the entire process and would without a doubt consult with him again if ever a similar situation should arise.

Exceptional Legal Support for Harassment Case!

I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding legal assistance provided by Tyler Merrill. He represented me in a case involving my boyfriend’s psychotic ex who incessantly harassed me, my friends, and even my family. Tyler’s professionalism, expertise, and unwavering support were instrumental in secur...ing a restraining order through a virtual court hearing on Zoom. Throughout the process, Tyler displayed a deep understanding of the legal complexities involved and guided me every step of the way. His attention to detail and thorough preparation were evident during the court proceedings, where he effectively presented our case and ensured our concerns were heard. Not only did Tyler win the restraining order, but he also displayed genuine care for my well-being. He took the time to listen, empathize, and address any concerns I had, providing reassurance and keeping me informed throughout the process. His responsiveness and clear communication were exceptional, making me feel valued as a client. I highly recommend Tyler Merrill to anyone in need of legal assistance, particularly in cases involving harassment or restraining orders. His knowledge, dedication, and compassionate approach make him an outstanding advocate. I am sincerely grateful for his support during a challenging time.

Job done with no complication

The divorce is not contested or heated. Thus, I cannot assess Tyler's expertise for more difficult scenarios. For my case, Tyler competently supported the divorce without any issue.
