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.

Divorce Legal Representation

Tyler was very professional throughout my entire divorce process. He was very responsive and knowledgeable about the process to make it as smooth as possible. Getting divorced is never an easy process, but Tyler definitely helped us make the process simpler and straightforward. I would highly recomme...nd Tyler and use his legal services again in the future.

I hired the BEST Lawyer!

I was going through a very long drawn out divorce with my Ex. I was referred to Mr. Merrill by another lawyer that was unable to help me. From the moment I talked to him on the phone I felt like someone understood what I was going through. He actually listened to me! He always kept me updated on ever...ything along the way. The one thing I really liked was he would tell me what I needed to hear not what I wanted to hear. He is the most honest lawyer I have ever talked with. On the day of court he hit a homerun for me, very prepared, and made sure ALL the facts where given in my case. I cannot think Mr. Merrill enough for deciding to take on my case. He made all the difference. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tyler!

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.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
