Client

I would highly recommend Eric Tindal’s services. I hired Eric to represent me against false allegations brought against me using the University of Iowa title 9 system. Although I had copious evidence, Eric made use of it strategically and sparingly. Eric leant heavily on his cunning and experience. W...e won under the old standard of evidence, which greatly favored the accuser, effectively making it a case of he-said she-said. It was a humiliating defeat for my ex-girlfirend, with the school investigators literally denouncing her as “fabrications”. Eric preformed amazingly and his skill as an attorney has impressed me. Eric made intelligent use of the facts and the law. I suspect he would provide even more impressive representation in an actual criminal trial. Luckily I did not have to find out. I would recommend Eric’s services to anyone who values their reputation and freedom. Eric works extremely hard and can be quickly and reliably reached via email. I would highly recommend Eric’s services to anyone dealing with Title 9 investigations and proceedings, as well as criminal matters.

No matter the “level” of your legal issue - I wouldn’t want to be facing it without Eric Tindal in your corner

I’m struggling to write this review because it’s truly impossible to find the right words - that properly describe how much I appreciate Eric Tindal, his legal skills, and the effort he put forth for me while I was his client. I personally feel like I owe my life and my freedom to him. Several ...years ago, I was falsely accused of a major felony. If convicted, I would have had to spend over 25 years in prison. And, because it was the type of crime where you’re considered guilty until proven innocent, I couldn’t find an attorney that was truly interested in fighting for me. It took over five years to get to trial and I went through 3 attorneys before finally finding an attorney that was willing to fight for my cause and do the work that was required to prove my innocence. By sheer luck, Eric was appointed to my case and it was like winning the lottery. Even though Eric was appointed by the court, his dedication to my case was unlike anything I had experienced with my prior attorneys. He paid attention to every detail and meticulously put together a case that would eventually lead to my acquittal at trial. Through my “experience” with the courts, I learned that there are three primary phases – pretrial, trial prep, and the trial itself. If you do actually have to go to trial, Eric’s presence in court is excellent. Having an attorney that presents himself well in court is invaluable. During the five years I was waiting to resolve my issues, I went to the courthouse and sat in on numerous trials (something Eric suggested). I also watched a lot of real court TV during that time. And, in my opinion, Eric’s trial presence is one of the best I’ve ever seen – it’s certainly better than anyone I witnessed in the Johnson County courthouse. Even though Eric has excellent trial skills, it’s really his pretrial and trial prep skills that set him apart from other attorneys. Finding competent expert witnesses, properly selecting the jury, making sure prejudicial “evidence” doesn’t get presented during trial, determining what evidence is relevant for trial, preparing you for your testimony, preparing witnesses for their testimony - these are just a few of the things that are crucial to being successful at trial – Eric excels at all aspects of the pretrial process and if your attorney doesn’t do a good job during this phase of the process, it won’t matter how good they are during the actual trial. In addition to Eric’s skills as an attorney, it should also be important to know that Eric always conducts himself with a very high degree of professionalism and integrity. The level of integrity that he displays throughout the entire process is probably why he’s consistently so successful in court. Bottom line - Eric’s dedication to his clients and their cause is unmatched by any attorney I’ve ever met. His knowledge of the law and his dedication to the pre-trial process, trial preparation, jury selection, and the trial process itself is exceptional. No matter the “level” of your legal issue - I wouldn’t want to be facing it without him in your corner and I definitely wouldn’t want to be in court without Eric Tindal.

Sincerely care about his clients!

Back in 2007 i got into some legal issues in Oskaloosa Iowa and was referred to Eric Tindal as a result. I was amazed with Eric's professionalism and dedication to my case. As an international student at the time he did not have all the answers regarding my eligibility to return to the U.S with my p...lea deal but he contacted an immigration friend and worked a deal for my best interest. I was able to return and finished school and now living a great life as a result. Don't know where I would be if I didn't hire a sensible lawyer that truly cared about my well being and who saw that I was a good kid just caught up in the wrong environment. Thanks Eric!
