Lost case and lack of communication

I hired him for a credit card case and he did not reach out whenever the case was continued to update me. I had to contact him or look up the case myself to find out. A judgement was found against me and I was ordered to pay and once again I had to contact him to find this out. He told me he would fo...llow up with the judge, but never heard back. I have emailed him multiple times to follow up and have not received a response. I had to contact the court to find out info that I requested from him and never received a response back. They will be mailing me the requested info.

Amazing Job!

Eric is an excellent lawyer. He is extremely knowledgeable, technical when needed and explains legal jargons and process without making you feel like an idiot. In addition, he is extremely level headed especially at a time when you think you'll lose everything. He also doesn't force the 'sales pitch'... that most lawyers do. I am truly happy I hired him and will be recommending him to everyone I know.

Extremely Helpful!

I reached out to Eric for legal advice and he was professional and articulate: he was able to explain legal jargon in a clear and concise fashion. I gave Eric a call during a time of stress and he was calm and understanding and I felt a lot better after he discussed my options. I appreciated his time... and help. I recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel.

A truly concerned great lawyer

After fighting my wife's breast cancer for the last 8 years the battle was finally lost. Leaving me with quite a bit of debt and despair, I hired Mr Landes to help deal with the situation. Mr Landes was not only excellent in his field as a lawyer, keeping me well informed and helping to limit and i...n some cases eliminated my problem. He did all this in a very compassionate understanding and supportive way. I feel my problem is in very capable hands. I whole heartedly recommend Mr Landes !

Highly recommend

Eric was great. Very patient, level-headed, and confident. He clearly explained our options, the possible outcomes, and interpreted the “legal-ese” in a way we could understand it. When the defense was threatening us he stepped in and handled everything in a respectful manner. Eric did his own backgr...ound work to prepare for our hearing and had more information about the property than the defense seemed to know. I would definitely recommend Eric and would hire him again if needed.
