Forrest has been our entire family attorney for over 25 years. We have used his services for home closings, probate of wills, estate set up, and other various legal affairs. He is very reasonable and always explains things in layman’s terms. I’d recommend Forrest to anyone seeking consultation on a wide array of legal situations.

We hired Forrest to defend us for a possession and paraphanalia charge, in two separate towns. Forrest knows this area of law inside and out and is extremely well liked and well respected by not only his colleagues, but by the judges. He has a kind, yet direct and insightful way about him. He is out for his client's best interest only, is an excellent negotiator and knows how far to go, in filing motions etc. to achieve the best outcome. Finally, his prices are fair and upfront. Forrest will not disappoint you and you will not achieve a better overall outcome with any other attorney. We highly recommend Forrest Merrill.

Forrest was available whenever I needed him. He responded to my emails quickly. He answered all of my questions and was able to get me a favorable outcome for my traffic violation He was well known in the municipality court that we went to. I believe that his relationships had helped in obtaining a very good outcome. I highly recommend him.

My son needed a lawyer and after some research we retained Forrest Merrill of Mahwah, NJ. We were very impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. He always told us all of the consequences that could be incurred. He worked tirelessly on my son’s case. Mr. Merrill always emailed an answer to any questions, in a timely manner, and was very through in his background research. I would recommend Mr. Merrill to my family and friends who needed a knowledgeable lawyer, without hesitation. My family is very grateful to Mr. Merrill as he helped us in a traumatic time in our time of legal need

I am indebted to Mr. Merrill for saving me my license after i was caught speeding on the highway. He bumped down all my points to 0, and even managed to reduce my fines. Astute, sharp, amicable.

Forrest helped me out with a dui case and was very detailed and thorough with the step by step events that went through during my arrest. In turn he picked out the few mistakes that the police officer had done and got my dui turned into a reckless driving. Saved my career and saved me thousands of dollars in surcharges. Highly reccomended

Forrest was beyond exceptional with his communication and his determination to get the appropriate outcome for my case. He was always very easy to contact, and always responded back within a reasonable amount of time. Forrest dedicated himself for hours between reviewing the discovery from my case, to discussing possible outcomes with the prosecutor, to advising me of the best and worst case scenarios. Forrest was able to get the best case scenario for me, without having to go to a trial. I would highly recommend Forrest to anyone.

Forrest handled my real estate closing, which turned out to be extremely difficult and challenging. We almost lost the deal, but thanks to his resourcefulness and persistence, he was able to make the closing happen with minimal delay. I recommend him highly!
