One of the most principled, innovative and effective attorneys I have ever worked with. The real deal. Jeffrey Merrick is one of the rare attorneys who is not only professionally invested in his clients' cases, but also emotionally invested in his clients' lives. I was a convicted felon with several open cases in multiple counties but Jeff was able to work out a deal where all of my cases were closed and past felonies expunged.
Today I am almost five years sober and I have no criminal record whatsoever. I got a second chance at life. Jeff brings years of experience and expertise to the table, and is also a genuinely concerned, caring individual who miraculously always seems to be able to be there when needed. Edward C. Stark, Esq. If one needs an attorney with the courts for alternative sentences, an interventionist for the family and a friend in your darkest hours, be it for yourself or a loved one, Jeff Merrick is your person.
Jeffrey is a compassionate, skilled attorney and interventionist who combines great training with an uncanny ability to motivate complex cases towards change.

An intervention is a serious, well-planned conversation with a loved one expressing concern over his or her mental health problems and/or abuse of drugs or alcohol.
The process needs to be supportive and heart-centered, free of anger, judgment or blame.

After thorough preparation and action planning, a group of people that the individual loves and respects comes together to present a pre-planned conversation about the addiction and/or mental health problems that need to be addressed.

Jeffrey Merrick is one of the most capable interventionists and treatment facilitators I have come into contact with since I started working at the Prescott House 15 years ago.

I feel that Jeffrey is the Swiss-Army knife of interventionists because he can operate at so many levels.
