About Our Firm
Merrill O’Sullivan is a premier, mid-sized law firm located in the heart of Bend, Oregon’s Old Mill District. Just as the Old Mill District has transformed itself to meet the needs of a new and changing world, our location in the Old Mill symbolizes our grounding in Central Oregon’s past, and the commitment by our attorneys to meet the changing and challenging needs of its future.
In 1974, Max Merrill and Terry O’Sullivan formed a law partnership in Bend, Oregon. Originally they were located in downtown Bend and focused on business, real estate and other general practice areas. However as the world and Bend changed, so too did the firm and its areas of practice. We added partners David Petersen and Stephen Dixon, continued to focus on our traditional areas of practice and also added specialization in family and estate planning and probate matters to our legal toolbox.
The partnership has continued to grow to meet clients’ legal, business, and personal needs. We currently have 5 attorneys, most of whom have practiced together for nearly four decades. We provide outstanding legal representation, as well as an emphasis on personalized client service. We understand our clients’ needs and are committed to them as individuals. We have technical knowledge of the law, apply a holistic approach to solving legal problems, and have a practical, intimate knowledge of the people and businesses of Central Oregon.
As Central Oregon grows, the community continues to be challenged with diverse and complex problems. Our firm’s history and aptitude gives us a solid foundation upon which to stand and help our clients meet the complex issues of the future. We provide clients with the knowledge and expertise to help meet such challenges. Our firm is dedicated to remaining the pinnacle of legal service to our diverse clientele – in a prompt, efficient and affordable manner.
