You will not find a more loyal, honest, and hardworking attorney. He is a true embodiment of all that is best in the profession. His "client-first" mentality is something that leaves an impression from the first moment you walk in his office. It clearly frames everything he does. I've worked with him for years. I can not only attest to his willingness to always put the client's needs above his own, but I can also attest to his knowledge, expertise, and understanding of the most complex nuances in the law. It's why he can get resolution the way he does. It's why his clients return to him time and again. It's why I would recommend Ernie to anyone looking for a first-class attorney. He is a true resource and blessing for colleagues and clients alike.
