Merlyn law firms legal services have been nothing short of spectacular from the beginning to the end. They have always been easily accessible & patient while advising me on how to move forward with my divorce proceedings. They are a team of excellent divorce lawyers in Chennai and always have their clients best interests at heart.

Mr.Rahul is by far one of the best divorce lawyers in India; he is very patient and understands his clients wants and needs. He takes the time and effort to make his clients comfortable & his knowledge on the subject of law gives you confidence. He has outstanding work ethic & is available and easy accessible to get in touch with at all times except for court hours. I would most definitely recommend Mr.Rahul & his partners at Merlyn law firm to anybody who is looking for a outstanding divorce lawyer

Kumar T

Its been close to a decade since I first approached Merlyn law firm to handle my property and family disputes. They were patient with me and were always transparent about everything from legal fees, procedures, outcome of my cases,etc. I have also recommended many of my clients, close friends & relatives to the firm and they have always given a 100% commitment towards all of them. Mr. Rahul and Mr. Jagannathan are phenomenal attorneys and I am glad that they are finally putting themselves out there as they deserve all the recognition for their outstanding work through the years.

I can personally vouch for Merlyn law firm to be your divorce lawyers. They are in my opinion; the best divorce lawyers in Chennai as all their partners are top lawyers practicing before the civil and criminal jurisdiction. I was a bit hesitant to approach another lawyer for a second opinion about my ugly divorce case; I approached Merlyn law firm; they not only provided me with expert legal solutions but had the moral compass to take me through the process, procedures and the legality for my better understanding.
