Ericka battles for you!

Ms Battle did not do a whole lot of communicating with me during the trial or on the phone... I was concerned she may have been neglecting me.... But in reality she was in the courtroom, outside of it and everywhere in that courthouse pushing for my charges to be dismissed....She was diligent and tho...rough when it came to doing the things she said she would.My case was a case of me being in the wrong place and catching some raw charges ... I explained it one time to Ms Battle and the case went my way. Thank you so much Ms Battle... You the Woman!! Sincerely Robert

Recommendation for ALL

I greatly appreciate Attorney Erika Battle for representing me in court. She provided me with knowledgeable information pertaining to the legality of my case and steps to allow the process to run smoothly. My case was a success!! I highly recommend her to any individuals that are in need of an attor...ney for Criminal Defense, Landlord & Tenant, DUI & DWI.

Dr. James Joseph

Overall, I give Ericka a "good" rating. Her work was sound, and she may have done the best should could on my case with the particular judge that she had to work with, but I would have liked to have known from her why the judge would not drop the speeding charge. A little extra communication may have... turned this experience into an "excellent" review.
