About Eric
Biography
With more than a decade of experience, Eric Olson has built a reputation as one of Southwest Florida's most trusted personal injury attorneys. As the founder of Cardinal Law, P.A., and as a Naples personal injury lawyer, Eric has helped countless clients recover from life-altering injuries and losses—combining legal skill, compassion, and a deep commitment to his community.
Eric's journey into personal injury law was shaped by personal tragedy: after losing his father to a misdiagnosed illness, he left a successful career in complex business litigation to focus on helping individuals and families facing their own unexpected hardships. Today, Eric is known for his holistic approach—fighting for both the compensation and the medical care his clients need to truly recover.
Whether negotiating a settlement or taking a case to trial, Eric draws on his years of experience at the world's largest law firm and his deep roots in Naples to achieve results that make a difference—not just for his clients, but for the broader community. His work has led to policy changes, industry recognition, and, most importantly, a legacy of lives changed for the better.
