Spencer and His Team Took Incredible Care
My brother was recently in his first car accident in Kentucky, and since it’s a no-fault state, we weren’t sure how to handle everything. I had him call Spencer, and from that point forward, he and his team took incredible care of him. They went above and beyond to ease the stress and minimize the financial impact the accident could have caused. Their professionalism, communication, and genuine concern made a tough situation so much easier. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else in the Tri-State area — Spencer and his team truly delivered outstanding service.
Brandon Callahan
I couldn’t have asked for better people
From the moment I called until my case was settled, I couldn’t have asked for better people. They were very informative and knowledgeable. If you have an out-of-state accident, make sure you use them. Thank you again to this team for all you did.
Karen Henry
The Absolute Best Injury Lawyer
Spencer has been the absolute best injury lawyer for my family! He has personally helped me and a couple of my family members through both minor and serious wrecks. He even took over a case for my dad that another lawyer could not close, but as soon as Spencer took over, he was able to increase the settlement three-fold and closed the case almost immediately! If you or your family are injured in a car wreck, I would highly recommend Merk Injury Law, because Spencer gets the job done!
Blake Allen
Spencer Is the Greatest Personal Injury Lawyer

If you or your family are ever in need of an injury attorney, choose Merk Injury Law, because Spencer gets the job done!

Eric Was Incredible to Work With
I’ve worked with Eric Gile as my attorney after two car accidents, one in 2019 and another in 2025. Eric was incredible to work with both times. He is professional, responsive, and genuinely caring. He handled my cases efficiently, communicated clearly, and achieved great results. Thanks to Eric and his team’s dedication, I received fair settlements and peace of mind. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest and compassionate attorney.
Lauren Pottinger

Great Injury Attorneys
Great injury attorneys. They worked on my and my wife's injury claim. They were very professional and pushed hard to get us a reasonable amount back for our injuries that we received due to the crash we were in.
Greg Trinks
I Would Not Hesitate to Use Merk & Gile Again
My wife and I were involved in a not-at-fault automobile accident. We were both injured, not life-threatening, but whiplash, possible slight concussion, etc. After an event like this, you will receive dozens of offers from attorneys wanting to represent you legally. My wife and I decided that we did not want to hire a large law firm with possibly dozens of lawyers on staff. We were looking for a smaller office that we would be able to connect with an actual person and not just be another customer. We found just the place here at Merk & Gile. We spoke with Eric Gile multiple times. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. Also, our paralegal Crystal was great. She was very quick to respond to any inquiries we had and kept us informed as the situation progressed. I hope I never need an injury attorney again, LOL, but if I do, I would not hesitate to use Merk & Gile again.
Sam M
Eric took care of everything
This was my first experience with being injured in a car accident, and Eric took care of everything for me. He explained the process and made it pretty easy to navigate. If this was to happen to me again, I would definitely go back to Eric again.
Erica Frederick
I Couldn’t Be More Satisfied
I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Eric Giles after being involved in a car accident, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome. From the very beginning, Mr. Giles was professional, attentive, and made me feel confident that my case was in good hands. He took the time to clearly explain the legal process, answered all of my questions, and kept me informed every step of the way. Most importantly, he fought hard on my behalf and was able to recover compensation that I was very pleased with. If you’re looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly dedicated to getting results, I highly recommend Eric Giles. He made a stressful situation much easier to handle, and I’m grateful for everything he did for me.

Truly amazing lawyers
(Translated by Google) After my car accident, I contacted the law firm Merk & Gile Injury Attorneys for a consultation, and they fought on my behalf. Amazing lawyers and all the staff—it was a pleasure working with them. I would recommend this law firm five times over: such good lawyers, and I am very happy with my compensation. I knew I was in good hands. They are professional, fast, and organized. Their team is very knowledgeable. I didn't expect the level of professionalism and dedication they put into my case from the beginning. Truly amazing lawyers who know how to handle cases like these.

Very easy to work with
I got into an accident about 5 months ago. Eric was very quick with the process, always checking up on me. I'm only 20 and had no idea how this process would work, and they walked me through everything! He already has the demand in the process for me as well. Was very easy to work with and 100% will recommend to anyone who gets into an accident!

Eric Did an Amazing Job
This was my first lawsuit. Eric and Chloe did a great job at helping me through the entire process. Anytime I had questions, Eric was there to answer them. After my car accident, my medical bills were not completely covered by the medical/car insurance, so going to court was a must so I didn’t get stuck with thousands of dollars of debt on top of now being permanently disabled. Eric managed to get all of my bills reimbursed, and some extra to cover any future bills I might have. Eric did an amazing job, and I highly recommend him!

Jenni Saunders
He Was Kind, Patient and Transparent
After an accident that was not my fault, I felt like I was being treated unfairly by the other party's insurance. I connected with Eric Gile after a friend referred me. He was kind, patient, and transparent. The process was easy, and I had no issues speaking with him when I needed to. I highly recommend to anyone looking for help!
Amber Awalt
He went the extra mile
In December 2024, I had an accident involving my vehicle. I was injured due to the crash. I was referred to Mr. Gile by an associate of mine whom he assisted in the same exact matter. From the start of the process to the finish, it has been very helpful, to say the least!! Mr. Gile and his staff have been very professional and personable and well communicated throughout the whole process. I am so fortunate to have had the pleasure of him being my attorney; he went the extra mile to make sure I was taken care of!! I am highly recommending him to anybody who needs a superior attorney for car accident injury!!

A True Professional You Can Turn To
If you need the help of a true professional, you can turn to Merk & Gile. I was in an accident six months ago and needed help; they were the only ones who responded to my request promptly. It was these guys from Merk & Gile. My attorney, Spencer, helped me and handled the case professionally and expertly. I highly recommend them and am immensely grateful for the service and professionalism they provided. Thanks so much, guys.

Spencer Merk Got Me Paid Again
I was working with Spencer Merk for the first time when HE GOT ME PAID. I'd had an accident, and I didn't even know who to call. 🤦🏽♀️
I actually called the Law Offices of Merk & Gile because another girl who had had an accident told me that THEY GOT HER PAID.
She wasn't lying! But unfortunately, I had another accident right after I'd just gotten over the first one. It was unbelievable for me and overwhelming. 😩
So I called the Law Offices of Merk & Gile (AGAIN). I didn't know what else to do. The other driver had LIED, and it was my word against hers!
But what happened is...
SPENCER MERK GOT ME PAID AGAIN.
It's just really good to know when an attorney is an expert at what he is doing and that they'll truly have your back when they are working for you.
So hopefully my review will help you make your decision to hire THE BEST. Because they ARE that.
Just try not to pass out when you see Mr. Merk, because he looks like God's gift to women. 🫢
I said that out loud, didn't I? 🤣

He Has Always Fought for Me
Mr. Gile has been my attorney on 3 different cases. He is always very detailed with me on all discussions between him and the insurance company, good or bad. He has always fought for me to get proper help and payouts. When Mr. Gile is out or busy, his assistant stays in touch with me and keeps me updated. I will, and have, referred him to others. Hopefully I won’t need him again, but if I’m ever in another accident, he is my only choice.

How is pain and suffering calculated?
Pain and suffering are considered non-economic damages and are calculated based on factors like the severity of injuries, impact on your daily life, and recovery duration. Your lawyer can provide an estimate.
What should I do immediately after an auto accident?
Ensure everyone's safety and call emergency services if needed. Exchange information with the other driver and gather evidence, including photos and witness details. Notify your insurance company and seek medical attention, even if you feel fine.
Do I need to go to court?
Many auto accident claims are settled out of court through negotiations. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, your case may go to trial. Your lawyer will advise you on the best course of action.
