About

Hillsborough is a wonderful place to work and to live. While my law practice extends to surrounding counties like Durham and Person, I spend a significant amount of time here in Orange County, in my office, at the Courthouse, or at the soccer field with my three boys. My goal and hope as a lawyer is to help my clients and to contribute to my community. I am lucky enough to practice with some great lawyers at Coleman, Gledhill, Hargrave, Merritt & Rainsford.  Don't hesitate to call if we can be of any assistance.

After the passing of my father in 2015, I reached out to Katie Merritt at Coleman, Gledhill, Hargrave, Merritt & Rainsford P.C. to assist me with my father’s estate. I met with Katie and provided her with the detailed information she requested in order to proceed with the closing of the estate. My father’s estate was mainly real estate in our local area in which Katie handled the whole process very professionally. While Katie was in the middle of closing my father’s estate, my grandmother passed away also in 2015 leaving me and my relatives her estate to split amongst the 4 of us. It was a very simple decision to request Katie to handle my grandmother’s estate due to me already working with her with another estate. After working with her through the closings of both estates, I was very impressed of her upfront discussions on how the process would work and everything we discussed was held true. If anyone is looking for an Estate Planning, Probate or Business attorney, I would highly recommend Katie Merritt as your representative as she will not disappoint.

She was very informative on which way was the best decision for our situation. She treated us more like family instead of just a number or just a client.

Mrs. Merritt has assisted me with two Estate processes. She was an asset to help navigate me through the procedures and protocols that were unfamiliar to me. I was updated on a regular basis either by email, US mail, or a phone call as to all filings or correspondence regarding the Estates. Mrs. Merritt always took time to answer my questions and be sure I understood each step of the process. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. I believe she is an asset to anyone who is planning an Estate or having to handle one after a loved one's death. I am beyond satisfied with her services!

Katie was amazing! She walked my 80 yr old grandmother and I through estate planning for her. She answered all of our questions explained in detail and was very very personalable! I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for estate planning!
