Simply the Best

Mr. Eric Ludin is a very professional and a consistent lawyer. He is more than just a lawyer but also a caring human being in general. Mr. Ludin knows what is best for any specific information and knows when patience is key. He reviews all the information many times and will answer any questions as ...many times as necessary for the customer/applicant. He takes thorough notes every time he is in contact with his customer and does not hesitate to ask anything that he will see applicable and fit for the given situation. His charismatic yet down-to-earth attitude makes one feel very comfortable, worry-free, knowing that he will do anything possible to help and solve one's legal issues. In my immigration case Mr. Ludin reviewed my case, making sure I have provided all needed facts that way he would be able to keep me posted on any changes within the immigration system. He kept me informed consistently just in case I would need to prepare and organize all my information. He cares and keeps his customers in mind, always staying current with any law changes that might affect them. Which is exactly what happened in my case and next thing you know I got a phone call from Mr. Ludin.

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.
