"Eric is a knowledgeable and tenacious attorney who is like a big fish in a small pond. He is direct, to the point, and I have felt confident for a long time that he has had my best interest in mind. I can see him as a future judge one day because of his ability to see the bigger picture, along with his forthcoming nature that fully encompasses his strong sense of justice. Big things ahead for this guy! 😃"

"Unfortunately they left us out to dry, lost our case, our lawyer didn't even ask the right questions or brought forth our evidence barley fought for us,,then ignored our emails pertaining mechanic liens which were time sensitive! When I emailed the secretary to ask why my emails aren't being answered again she said the lawyer we had quit and the other lawyers case load is too big to handle my cases...they charged us just for them to read an email on how the lawyer was doing when he got in his car accident. In my experience I would NOT use or recommend...very unorganized."
