Mergs is very Patient with his clients and he is very knowledgable and has vast experience in the field. He always listens and doesn’t rush, guides his clients and gives all the attention and time required. In our case it was my wife, my Daughter and I were involved in the MVA and our case was complicated as the other party involved had a rental vehicle with no valid insurance of any sorts. Mr. Pillay had to put in a lot of effort to get our claims settled but he made sure that we got we deserved and our family is happy that we seekhis help. I would surely recommend Pillay legal services to everyone who is seeking help.

I had the privilege of working with Mergs Pillay during a very difficult time in my life(divorce), and I couldn’t have asked for a better family lawyer. My case involved both child custody and child support, and it went through the court process—which can be overwhelming and emotionally draining. Throughout it all, Mergs remained incredibly professional, focused, and supportive. No matter how many questions I had, he responded to each and every one with patience, clarity, and a genuine willingness to help. It gave me peace of mind knowing I had someone so attentive and reliable in my corner. If you need a family lawyer who truly cares and communicates well, I highly recommend him.

Don't confuse Merg's kindness for weakness-his kindness is a conscious choice, not a reflection of his abilities. As my lawyer for both corporate and divorce litigation, I've seen firsthand how Merg's approach blends compassion with unmatched strength and intelligence. I've witnessed other attorneys beg for his forgiveness after provoking the "sleeping beast" within him. Merg is not just a lawyer; he's the fierce protector you want by your side when navigating the complexities of the legal system. When it comes to who's standing by you in the storm, Merg is the one you want in your corner.

I spent far too much money on two lawyers before finding Mergs. In less than six weeks, he brought my divorce close to finalization—something my previous lawyers failed to do. Mergs was present, knowledgeable, and direct, always keeping the end goal in focus.
Divorces can be emotionally and legally complex, often filled with unnecessary delays and distractions. Mergs cut through the noise and maintained momentum, ensuring steady progress. Despite dealing with an extremely difficult and unprofessional opposing counsel, he navigated the process effectively and professionally.
After nearly five years of frustration, Mergs accomplished in under a year what others could not. He is not only highly skilled but also kind and supportive. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dedicated and results-driven lawyer.

My wife and I separated after marriage break down and, wanting to keep costs down, enlisted the services of a company offering mediation services. We worked through the mediation process but my wife didn't think things were going at the speed she desired and so she retained a lawyer. I knew this would drive costs up and, because of her not working, could place us in financial harms way. So, I decided I needed to hire a lawyer to act on my behalf. I was lucky, though, as a buddy from work was in the middle of a divorce and that he was impressed with his lawyer Mergs Pillay. I made an appointment and met with Mergs. He was very compassionate to my situation and he said he would be able to help. We worked together with my wife and her lawyer and after about a month got to the point where we could sign our Separation Agreement. I believe that the fees were fair and that he really had my best interest at heart. I don't hesitate at all in recommending Mergs to anyone going through the same.

Mr. Pillay’s ability to navigate the complexities of the legal system and devise effective strategies was truly impressive. He meticulously examined every aspect of my case, leaving no stone unturned. His attention to detail and thoroughness gave me confidence and peace of mind.
Without a doubt, Pillay Law will be my go-to firm for any future legal matters. His professionalism, expertise, and dedication have won me over completely. I am confident that anyone who seeks his assistance, whether it be for civil or criminal matters, will experience the same exceptional level of service that I did.
I wholeheartedly recommend Pillay Law to anyone in need of legal representation. Their unmatched professionalism, dedication, and ability to achieve outstanding results make them an exceptional choice. I am immensely grateful for their support and guidance throughout my case, and I will eagerly refer them to anyone who crosses my path seeking legal assistance.

Mergs was the beacon of hope in resolving my family matter. Not only was he able to defend me from unjust accusations, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and made the process stress free with the result I was looking for. I can't thank Mergs enough for his hard work.

We had t opportunity to avail Mergs services regarding preparing a will for our family and he did it in the most professional manner.He explained in details the finer points of the will and provided valuable insight into factors that could affect our family at a later stage. I trust this lawyer for his professionalism and honesty in his dealings. On another ocassion me and my family approached him regarding a real estate deal and he pointed out to us about the pitfalls that we could fall in. Based on his sound advice we opted out of the real estate deal and saved out hard earned money. Merge, the man for all reasons and all seasons.

The dedication that Mahendra (Mergs) Pillay has for his clients is second to none. Over the 10+ years that I have worked with Mergs he has always been very responsive, resourceful, and dependable. He can be trusted to provide practical legal advice and Mergs works tirelessly to achieve the best outcome for his clients. I experienced this first hand through the services Mergs provided to help me resolve several complex matters while I was living abroad. Mergs has undoubtedly earned my highest recommendation to any individual seeking personable, top-notch representation on a wide range of legal matters.

Mahendra Pillay was our lawyer for our real estate transaction. We had such a pleasant experience with him, he was very knowledgable and pleasant to deal with. At every point of our paperwork, he took the time to thoroughly explain what each document was and why we needed to sign it, this was extremely beneficial! His office was organized and responded to our inquiries in a timely manner. I would recommend this lawyer to everyone I know, he will be our first call should we ever need legal services again. 10 out 10!

In the beginning of any legal matter there is alot of ambiguity and sensitivity.However my experience was much more positive because Mahendra Pillay's ability to articulate and inform you on your legal matters, he allows an individual to feel confident and too go on with their day to day life and let him take care of the rest. I would recommend Mahendra to anyone who is seeking legal representation because not only is he an experienced Lawyer but he has your genuine interest at heart. - N. Naidoo

Vantage Point Law is one of the most professional law firms I've had the chance to work with. Getting in touch with a lawyer and arranging the initial consultation was easy. My lawyer was Mr. Mergs Pillay. He is extremely efficient and knowledgeable. He took time to explain specific details of my case and was available to me whenever I had questions. He's exceptionally experienced and offers great insight, and this translates into the legal work that he does. I know many others who have all had great outcomes from both Mr. Pillay and vantage point law. Speaking with others in his field, he is highly regarded with his many years of experience. Without a doubt, recommended by myself and many of my colleagues and trustworthy of your legal issues.

This lawyer is amazing for those of us who are branded with contempt or have any other ongoing criminal matters with the law. He charges a pretty penny, that's for sure, but he will do anything to help get you out of a tight spot. He knows how to look professional, personable, charming, but is a shark underneath it all. He has a lot of experience with the worst of the worst and will be loyal to the bitter end. If you want to play "above the table" and with some sort of "holier than thou" ethical attitude, it won't be worth your time to hire this lawyer. He works best with cases that are on the edge, challenging, and does a pretty fine job at it I must say. He acts like your best friend, but really he is in it for the money, like the rest of them. Can you blame him, if he can reel in the Clients who are willing to pay the real big bucks? Wouldn't want to get on his bad side, that's for sure. His partner has apparently been suspended in the past--I wonder if he'll be next.

A few weeks ago I was in court and while waiting for the judge to hear my case, Mr Pillay and his client were presenting their case. It was a pleasure watching this slimy lawyer and his client who looks like a **** (apparently also a officer of the court) commit perjury. Mergs was caught in a lie within 30 seconds of saying his client was paid up to date in his child and spousal support. Default action in April, may, june, July, Aug. Both of these lawyers should lose their right to practice. Everyone in the gallery chuckled when the judge kept reading the default Actions on MEP'S SOA. This freak is a lawyer but yet can't pay to put food in his kids mouths! I can't believe our courts let people like this practice in our system! It's time we only let professionals practice! This is a big part of what's wrong with our justice system!

I was attending court last week for a buddy of mine. This lawyer, AND his client (who is apparently also a lawyer) BOTH got nailed for perjury by the judge! They lied to the judge's face, right there in the courtroom! The documents proved it. He was trying to cover up for his "deadbeat dad" client not paying child support to the enforcement program. The client dude is a lawyer and defaults on supporting his own kids. The two made a perfect team in court. Sounds like there will be some pretty major consequences, both for refusing to pay and for flat-out lying about it under oath. I heard that Pillay and his firm were also involved in a very serious mortgage fraud case a few years back. Be forewarned about this guy. Don't be fooled by his articulate and persuasive demeanor. I wouldn't trust him with a ten-foot pole if I were you, or his client for that matter.
