Merkle Law Firm was my strength in a storm. I learned long ago when life happens, and it does, I have to play the cards I'm dealt. Yet when I was injured at work and had to deal with a big money insurance company in a workers comp case I learned the deck is stacked against the injured employee. Bret and his team guided me through the process, explaining every step of the way, how the system is set up. It's frustrating to be dealing with health issues, surgery, Doctor appointments and having my life and future being played with by the same people I once believed were people in the system that were supposed to help the injured. Bret and his team talked me off the ledge several times during this long and trying process. Everything Bret told me about the process was true. Bret Merkle and his his team took care of me and my case as if I mattered. In a process that the injured employee really has no value, Bret, Sue, and Melissa gave me the strength to go the distance. I highly recommend Merkle Law Firm and would trust Bret with my life.

My family has used Merkle Law Firm to handle several different issues that needed professional attention. The professional Staff, Sue and Melissa and Bret always take time to listen and advise of all of our options.

The folks at Merkle Law Firm handled our case with patience and determination to get us the best settlement. Their Godly attitude and kindness helped us in many ways. Thanks again and God bless.

My family and I were all involved in a personal injury case. Bret and Sue were there for our entire family, kids included, the entire time! They listened to all our problems. They took care of our entire lawsuit for us allowing us to concentrate on recovery. He worked hard to get us the biggest, but fair, settlement for our case. I would recommend them to anyone who's been hurt or injured. They are great!

I am attorney practicing personal injury law in Los Angeles. A local client of mine was traveling in South Dakota with her parents and suffered a severe injury. I knew of no attorneys in South Dakota, and I am not licensed to practice in that state. Needing to retain a highly qualified personal injury attorney for my client who was licensed in that state, I began with an on-line search that resulted in a number of firms, including Bret Merkle. I spoke with Bret by phone and then flew to South Dakota and met with him. I was very impressed with his personality, knowledge of the law, and his work ethic, so I retained him to represent my client. Bret did an outstanding job that resulted in a large settlement for my minor client, all the while keeping me and my client informed of his progress. I cannot recommend Bret too highly, and I hope to have the luck, and pleasure, of working with him again.

The Merkle Law Firm in Sioux Falls is second to none in the state of South Dakota. Yes, I said the entire state. If your looking for sound legal advise, with honesty, integrity and true moral spirit, you have found it. From an out of court settlement to a jury trial you have hired the entire package that will represent you the entire way.

I have appreciated Bret's work for me in a number of areas, and more specifically in the area of acting as a trustee. Bret is very prompt at returning calls, usually within the hour. He arranges to meet with me, if need be, within a matter of days. He always is personable and makes me feel at ease to ask questions. I am a 'seasoned' woman, and I appreciate Bret's care and concern for my legal issues.

Bret and his staff are always kind and caring and totally professional. Always helping us whenever we need it.

Bret was my attorney with my injury claim on two different times. If it wasn't for Bret it would not have turned out like it did. Bret worked on this quite a while. He kept us on top of the situation when we didn't know what to do.

We have been affiliated with Merkle Law Firm for over 20 years. What makes them different? The people behind the organization. Some people say they care, but these people mean it! Whether we were dealing with small legal questions or larger cases that affected the direction of our organization, the wise counsel we received has helped us take our organization to the next level on many occasions. They have said and done everything we needed on many occasions in a professional matter and once they took over, we never had to deal with it. An issue that was seemingly small took high priority in their eyes and it was resolved very quickly, and in our favor I might add. I highly recommend Merkle Law Firm to anyone who wants real answers to the sometimes confusing questions that come our way personally and professionally.
