Merck Law was amazing to work with after my car accident near Atlanta. Austin and his team took the time to explain everything, handled the insurance company for me, and made the whole process so much less stressful. I always felt informed and supported. If you need a personal injury lawyer in Atlanta area, I can’t recommend Merck Law enough!
I highly recommend Attorney Merk Smith. He offered realistic, straightforward guidance while still being incredibly compassionate. He answered all of my questions clearly and helped me feel calm and confident before my court appearance. I’m grateful for his time and expertise!
I had a terrible car accident earlier this year and I was payed out within a couple of months. It was a pleasure working with Tamara. Merck Law is very professional and I am very impressed with the service they provided for me. I would definitely recommend working with Merck Law!
I am very grateful to Austin and Tamara for their work on my case. They made sure I received proper medical care and treatment and ensured that I received a fair settlement. Tamara was very good at providing me with updates and answering any questions or concerns that I had. It took a huge weight off of me to know that I had good people fighting for me when I was unable to. I pray I don't need them again but if I do I will be back. Thank you so much Tamara and Austin!!
Mr. Smith was so helpful! I’m attempting to represent myself in a case and he took his time to explain everything I needed. He also walked me through every step and also proof read my documents. I’m forever grateful for his kindness and patience because I ask a lot of questions!
Merck has helped me with various legal issues for years. Very professional, easy to work with, and excellent results. Highly recommended.
Austin is the best personal injury attorney in Atlanta! He was responsive, professional, and fought hard for my case. Highly recommend him if you need a dedicated car accident lawyer.
