Eric Artell Bates

Receive dui, hired Eric Bates attorney. The court offered a plea deal, and without looking at it, he said take it. I still had to serve time in jail. If he couldn't help with the sentencing, he should have refunded some of my money. If you have a license in another state and get a DUI in Kentucky, do...n't use Eric Bates.

Facing the law from the other side after being a Police Officer 20 years ago, Eric Bates was recommended to represent me. I was not disappointed. Even during the pandemic, Eric was tirelessly working on my behalf. He stayed in contact. He was honest with me, and gave me the worst and best case scenar...ios. And then preceded to deliver. I can't imagine going through all of this with another lawyer.

I had an attorney before Eric and it was a terrible experience. My case at the time got settled. Once it got brought back to life, I was really strict on calling attorney's and meeting with different ones. I probably met 4 attorneys and called 3 others before finally meeting Eric. I hired him, and I ...have yet to be disappointed by anything that has happened thus far. He is laid back, respectful (to all parties) and just all around a great lawyer!! Highly recommend.

My husband and I were very pleased with Mr. Bates. Finding ourselves facing a legal predicament, we really didn’t know what to do. Several trusted people in our life recommended Eric Bates to us. He was very thorough in helping us understand what was happening and what our options were, as well as gi...ving us a realistic idea of what we could expect the outcome to be. I have a tendency to freak out, and he handled it very well and kept me grounded. I highly recommend Eric Bates!

Mr. Bates is an amazing attorney! My son had retained another attorney and ended up making a poor plea choice. When Mr. Bates took over, he thoroughly explored and shared with us all options. He worked cooperatively with prosecutors and the judge to create an opportunity for my son to work his way b...ack from this charge. Two years later, my son has completed drug court and his charges are being expunged. Eric Bates is a fighter but also a skilled negotiator. He helped to change our lives for the better!
