Derek Merman graduated from Baylor University in 1998 with a B.S. in Biology.  He attended law school at the University of Houston Law Center where he graduated cum laude in 2004.

Derek was raised by his mother on their ranch near Waco, Texas after his father died in a plane accident when he was six-years- old; as a result of that tragedy, Derek is compassionate with his clients and passionate about his work for the injured and those that have lost loved-ones due to the negligence of others.  Derek focuses his practice on wrongful-death claims, catastrophic injuries, admiralty claims and excessive-force cases.  He is also a proficient Spanish speaker.

They enjoy fishing, hiking, biking, playing at the park and eating good Texas BBQ. The Merman family supports several charities locally and nationally focused on education and helping people that have suffered recent tragedy.
