Posted by Christopher & Melissa | March 10, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Simply the best Lawyer!

Highly Recommended! We have used Eric several times for wills, will probate, and power of attorney. Eric is a true professional, extremely knowledgeable, very detailed, compassionate, caring and trustworthy. I have a deep gratitude for all of his help through a tough time when my mom passed. I apprec...iate the time he took with us explaining everything in detail. He alleviated my concerns, and anxieties. A true professional.

Highly Effective/Personable

My Wife (fiance at the time) and I used Eric Schwab for our real Estate closing when buying our first home in February of 2019. Eric took the time to walk through the entire "home buying: process with me and explain all of the in's and out;s of the legal process as well as the overall process. After... leaving his office for our first consultation I had an immediate sense of relief in what is typically a stressful process. Eric also worked great with my realtor as well as the sellers attorney/realtor. I would not have any hesitation in using him again!

Hardest working lawyer!!!!!

Eric went above and beyond the surface of my case by analyzing every possible strategy to win, with which we did! He portrayed the patience and kindness, while delivering incredible law knowledge and skill. Upon all the trials and tribulation, I also found a friend out of it all. Thank you again!!!...!

Excellent with a tricky real estate transaction

I was selling a house and buying another house in a different town in NJ; Eric was excellent at representing me from start to finish. This was a somewhat tricky transaction because there were two attorney reviews, two closings that had to be set up with the sale closing before the buy and Eric handl...ed it with no problems. He was very patient and explained everything to me every step of the way. One of the things I like best about Eric is that he talks to you like a "regular" person and not with a lot of "legalise"; so that you understand everything that is happening. It was a pleasure having Eric represent me in this matter.
