After being hit by a car, I was in shock and completely overwhelmed by the aftermath. I knew I needed legal help but... wasn’t sure where to turn. A friend recommended Austin Merk at Merk Law, and I’m so glad they did.From the first call, Austin was incredibly supportive and understanding. He took the time to listen to my story and immediately got to work on my case. What stood out to me was how compassionate and approachable he was, yet also incredibly sharp and detail-oriented. He didn’t just treat me like another case—he treated me like a person who needed help.Austin was thorough in gathering evidence and dealing with the insurance company, which was a huge relief for me. I didn’t have to worry about a thing because I knew he was handling it all. He kept me updated throughout the process and made sure I understood my options at every step.The end result was more than I could have hoped for. Austin secured a settlement that covered all my medical expenses, plus compensation for the pain and disruption the accident caused in my life. The financial relief has been crucial in helping me get back on my feet.I highly recommend Austin Merk to anyone who has been in an accident.
