Very professional!

I hired Mr. Abrams due to a dispute with my previous landlord and he was nothing less than professional and kind throughout the entire process. He was very open to answering any questions regarding the matter and always kept me informed on any updates. Highly recommend!

Erik Abrams - Exceptional Attorney

From day one, Erik Abrams did a phenomenal job handling our case. He truly took the time to listen to us, paid close attention to every detail, and followed through on everything he promised. From the very beginning, he gave us peace of mind by assuring us that he would do his absolute best to fight ...for us—and he delivered. We were dealing with a very unjust landlord who was trying to wrongfully keep our security deposit for no valid reason. Erik fought hard for us every step of the way, and in the end, we won the case. The relief and gratitude we feel are beyond words. Erik is extremely professional, responsive, and truly gets the job done. I highly recommend him to anyone needing help with real estate matters or personal injury cases. You want him on your side.

Avoid like the plague

Working with Erik was an absolute nightmare and highly recommend you avoid Erik and RTRLAW because they hired him. We hired Erik to try and recover our security deposit from our ex landlord and he couldn't even recover 25%. The rental had ZERO damage, not even a picture hole and professionally clean...ed. He lied to us and said it was a slam dunk case. Everything was okay when the defendants had no lawyer. As soon as they hired one of the worst lawyers in town, Erik was afraid to go forward. Honestly, don't waste your time with Erik or RTRLAW. it was a massive unnecessary headache. All from some scraps and it took FOREVER to get paid our scraps. Erik is the reason lawyer jokes and stereotypes exist. I will report him to the Florida BAR.

Outstanding Attorney Who Won Both My Cases

I hired Erik Abrams to represent me in a dispute with my former landlord, who wrongfully kept my security deposit even though there were no damages to the apartment. Not only did Erik guide me through the entire process with professionalism and clarity, but when the landlord decided to countersue me,... Erik handled that case just as confidently. He fought hard on my behalf and won both cases. His dedication, expertise, and calm approach made a stressful situation so much easier. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. I highly recommend Erik to anyone needing a skilled and dependable lawyer!

Dependable and diligent

Erik made sure I was well informed and spent time answering questions and explaining his process. He was diligent in seeking out the best possible outcome and I was more than happy with the result. I will definitely be returning to him if I am in need of his services in the future.
