Litigation, complex family law cases

Eric Higgins and his team represented me in my divorce case in 2024. Eric understood the case and what was required to get the best outcome. Having worked with multiple lawyers in this highly contentious case, I can say that Eric’s planning, strategies and implementing those strategies are brilliant.... Early on in the case his proactive approach of filing motions put me in a favourable position. His team is very thorough with all court filings and keeps the client in the loop at all times. Communication is key, Eric and his team respond to emails and situations in a timely manner. He handled deposition very skillfully asking all the relevant questions. On the day of hearing Eric was well organized, prepared and presented the case details with precision. He was very skillful in his cross questioning of the plaintiff which helped highlight core issues in front of the judge. I would recommend Eric Higgins and his team for litigation and complex family law cases.

A great person to have in your corner!

Eric Higgins was, and continues to be, an incredible help and support to me. He has been professional, intelligent, confident, compassionate, and very patient throughout the stressful process of divorce and beyond. He is a genuinely kind and caring person, and takes the time to listen to all my con...cerns. I never have felt rushed or that time was "running out." I am very happy with the outcome, and his continued support through any bumps in the road that have arisen since. I would give Eric my highest recommendation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
