Highly Recommended.

Eric Hutner has been my lawyer, and the lawyer for my companies, for about 25 years. He handles our business law, corporate and securities needs, and he also has vast experience in arbitration and litigation. I consider him a valued friend and ally, my most trusted counsel, and someone I can count on... for almost everything. I highly recommend him for his ethics, attention to detail, his organization skills, his ability to foresee potential issues, and his ability to deliver a professional and quality service.

CFO

Eric Hutner has been our company’s primary business and corporate lawyer for a number of years. He has helped with the day-to-day legal affairs of our company (such as employment contracts, operating agreements, vendor contracts), and has also represented us in a number of merger and acquisition tran...sactions. Eric’s counsel, his drafting abilities, and his care and commitment, not only for the significant multi-million dollar transactions but also for the routine corporate work that helps our company run smoothly, have been invaluable to our success.

Chief Compliance Officer

I am a senior officer and Chief Compliance Officer of a small broker-dealer. Over the years, Eric Hutner has successfully represented us in securities arbitrations, and has handled many different types of regulatory issues, involving FINRA and state regulators, from licensing to enforcement. He has a...dvised un on our dealings with vendors and employees, and has become my go-to guy for answers, for quick answers, for the right answers. He always responds promptly to my calls and emails and I sleep better knowing that he is my corner.

Excellent Legal Counsel!

Eric Hutner is the principal counsel for the small public company that I recently joined as CFO. I quickly learned that he is a very valuable legal resource. He has provided me with valuable legal advice on all sorts of business matters and has a wide and diverse set of talents as a lawyer and a brea...dth of knowledge that is remarkable. I am glad he is now "my lawyer."

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.
