Multiple Misdemeanors

My case lasted roughly 5 months which ended in the charges being dropped and my record expunged. Within that time Mr. Wilson was easily reached through email or phone whenever I had a question.

Lifesaver

Attorney Wilson was a godsend! I was arrested in Van Wert, but I live in another state. I was referred to Attorney Wilson via a gentleman from the Ohio State Bar Association. I was told hands down Mr Wilson was the best. He was friendly, easy to work with and delivered on his word. Lisa was prompt re...sponding to my initial inquiry and responding to all my communications. I was facing a super DUI, drug charges, child endangerment charges and multiple minor traffic infractions. I could have been sentence a minimum of 6 months in jail for one charge alone. Attorney Wilson negotiated a plea where I was charged only for a low tier DUI & all other charges dismissed. I walked out of court only owing a balance of 123$ and it was over. He knew exactly what needed to be done to preserve my dignity in my darkest hour. In my opinion, no one should go to court without the Wilsons by their side.

OVI

Eric did a wonderful job representing me. His staff was very friendly and easy to get a hold of if there were any questions that I had. Definitely would recommend.

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.
