Most favorable review for Eric Wittenberg

Realizing nobody scores perfect, I take exception to that saying in the review of Eric. I am a retired police officer and have a considerable background as an expert witness in police cases. Unlike most clients, I have extensive experience working with attorneys. Sadly, many I have worked beside l...acked the qualities I found with Eric. I came to know Eric and his team a year ago when my life had been totally destroyed by a family business relationship gone south. This was due in large part to a convicted felon who had managed to pull off an unbelievable con on my family members. Had it not been for Eric Wittenberg and his firm of talented legal professionals I am quite sure my life would have no hope of recovery. Eric, is a sincere, straight to the point attorney the likes of whom I have never known. He has no desire to sugar coat the truth and is never reluctant to say what in many cases is not welcome. He goes out of his way to be there whenever he is needed. I have never known an attorney who responds to a crisis so quickly and compassionately no matter the day or time. Eric is extremely knowledgeable, and best of all to me, he does not know it all! He readily admits when he does not know and moves quickly to find the answers to complex issues. My case is still ongoing and I cannot even imagine going forward without Eric Wittenberg. I was and continue to be blessed with the peace of mind having Eric and his incredible team of professionals on my side. He is the exception to whatever one may believe about attorneys. Thank you Eric Wittenberg!!!

Made a difficult situation easy to handle

I'd made it almost half a century in life without needing a lawyer, so when I needed one it was a bit bewildering. Eric was recommended through a mutual contact, and he was able to see me immediately. Eric reviewed my situation, went through a variety of options and likely outcomes, and helped me dec...ide which was best for me. My situation did not need litigation, and we opted for a cease and desist letter - kind of a "shot across the bow" with all of the right words and phrases to get the desired effect. The process was quick, the outcome was as good as I could have hoped for, and I've had the comfort of knowing that if I ever need a lawyer again, a good one is just a phone call away.
