"I can’t thank Flaherty & Merrifield enough for the incredible work they did on my case. From the very beginning, the team was professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to helping me achieve the best possible outcome. They took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and made sure I always felt informed and supported. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and strategic approach gave me peace of mind during a very stressful time. It was clear they truly cared—not just about the case, but about me as a person and my family as well. Because of their dedication and skill, I never stepped foot into court and we reached a successful resolution that exceeded my expectations (Dismissal). If you’re looking for a legal professional who will fight for you with compassion and integrity, I highly recommend Mrs. Merrifield! The Attorney, Firm, and Staff went above and beyond. I’m incredibly grateful for everything they did. ***Don't risk your freedom, waste your time or money looking elsewhere. This law firm is the truth!!!!"

"If Flaherty & Merrifield is not representing you...then there are only two words I can offer...Good Luck! There aren't enough characters to describe how wonderful this law firm is. Every single staff member, from the paralegals to the receptionist to the Legal assistants are just flat out amazing. Mrs. Merrifield represented me and my case got dismissed. I am truly grateful for this Law Firm."
