THE BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!!!! HIRE HIM YOU WILL BE HAPPY

ERIC IS THE BEST!!! I could write a book about my case and how screwed up it was. Eric was the best decision I made. I hired an attorney that I just was not happy with. So, I found Eric on this website. He is very accessible by phone or email at anytime. He is very easy to get a hold of unlike a lo...t of other attorneys. Eric is in a class all by himself. I have dealt with attorneys over the years personally and in business. Eric is by far the best. He leaves no stone unturned. He is prepared for every possible situation that could happen. Also, he just understands the law better than any attorney I have ever met. I had a very serious case of a 3rd degree felony (which should have been a civil case). This case got so out of hand and was mishandled on every level from the detectives to the prosecutor. I was facing 5 years in prision for a crime I could not have committed because I was in the hospital having a major surgery at the time. I could not get anyone to listen to me. The final result was that the case was dropped. I can say without question this would not have been the result with any other attorney. Eric will fight for you all the way. In closing I want to talk about Eric the man. He is kind, professional, polite and explains things so the average guy or gal can understand. You are not a number to him. I can not thank Eric enough and I can not emphasis to the people that read this that Eric is the attorney to hire.

Very helpful

Eric Trabin handled my vop and a driving while license suspended in another county. He knew what motion to file that none of the other lawyers I spoke with even thought of. He got both cases dismissed!

EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE & KINDHEARTED

Mr.Trabin helped me when I was going through a VERY hard time concering a loved one being charged with a serious crime he was falsely accused of. Many attorneys actually after speaking with them told me that there was basically nothing I could do and I felt as if I should give up on a person that mea...nt the world to me. I spoke with at least a dozen attorneys, and then by the grace of God I found Mr.Tribin. Not only was he well spoken, but he was very knowledgeable and would'nt give up on my situation. He kept me up to date on my case by the hour. By turning to Trabin I was able to get my loved one not only out of jail but all charges dropped and in the process of getting his record expunged! I couldn't have done it without him! What every attorney should strive to be if you ask me. And the case I had to deal with was probably as bad as it gets, and all over false allegations.

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.
