In such a hard and trying time, Attorney Merrell made my situation as light and understanding as possible. His knowledge of family/domestic law is refreshing. I have been and am grateful to have him as attorney
Ed Merrell helped me with a family law situation. He's extremely knowledgeable. He also genuinely cares about his clients!
Very Proactive Attorney. Super nice guy! Mr . Merrell makes your problem his problem. I'm very grateful for Edward Merrell and all he has done for my family.
Mr. Merrell was very helpful in advising me as what I should do when it comes to my neighbor that is a bipolar psycho witch. She thinks I have no right to come outside and enjoy sitting around our firepit at night. She harasses us to no end, calling us names and threatening to slap me up side of the head, which she did hit me with a child's toy truck,cutting my hand ,drawing blood. She is mean and crazy and showed she will hurt me.
I would highly recommend Mr. Merrell for ANY legal needs you may have. If it is not in his area of practice, he will steer you in the right direction and you will not feel like you are being passed off to someone else. Mr. Merrell is very knowledgeable and he is also a very nice man, he will take his time to explain to you the process and the options that are available to you. He also will let you know what to expect and what not to expect. He goes above and beyond any other lawyers I have ever meet in making sure that his client is informed and understands fully the case. I hired The Merrell Law Firm on a Custody hearing and also on an appeal to the Court of Civil Appeals. Mr. Merrell did everything within his power to make this process as unstressfull on me as possible. I do not know of any lawyer other than Mr. Merrell who would take his time to personally talk to me on several different occasions for anywhere from 30 minutes to 50 minutes answering my questions and reassuring me about the case. Mr. Merrell is a rare commodity in the law field, he is a dying breed, both a learned professional and a truly caring gentleman. If you want the BEST, hire Edward Merrell, period!
