Skilled and compassionate guidance through a difficult divorce

Clifford Merin provided excellent representation during my complex divorce. His 15 years of experience in family law were evident; he was a steady, strategic advisor who clearly knew the Connecticut courts. His recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved. He explained every step thoroughly and fought hard for a fair settlement regarding our assets and custody arrangement. While his response time to emails could occasionally be a day or two, his overall counsel was invaluable. I highly recommend Merin Law for sensitive family matters.
