Highly recommend Eric Ryberg
Habush Habush and Rottier/HHR: The very best law firm around for auto accident cases. Period, end of discussion. Please trust me when I say they have your back from start to finish, no matter the time it takes to complete your case. I knew nothing about this law firm prior to my initial consultation other than the fact my father spoke so highly of them; as he eloquently put it they’ve been ranked as the best of the best in law firm surveys. My father said, this top notch caliber law firm is where other attorneys would go for representation or advice, that’s how good they are. My father was right on this advice, thank you dad! Takes a fraction of time to change someone’s life forever for worse or for better. In my case it was from an auto accident where I found my hero at HHR who helped me beyond words of gratitude on the long road of healing. Believe me it can often feel like a lonely road to walk but with the right support it makes every step of the journey that mush easier to navigate. From my experience HHR vigorously turned over every stone to make it right. I’m not one to drop names but this is my review so I’m going to give credit where credit is due..to the best attorney I know, Eric Ryberg! Please ask for Eric by name and when you meet tell him Brandon from the review suggested his service, and share a smile because you’re in good company. I wrote this review from from the bottom of my heart from one auto accident victim to another, focus on your recovery and let HHR focus on the rest. Like the Prairie du Sac Dam regulates water flow, HHR will keep you informed in a timely manor about your case with a steady flow of utmost important information. This way you’re informed without being overwhelmed. The best way others can thank me with gratitude for my ‘fatherly advice’ is to share your experience from HHR and together we will ensure that help gets to those involved in an accident. God bless you and your family and full speed ahead on your recovery.

Top Notch Attorney
Our paths crossed when I found myself in need of an Attorney to help remind dog owners of the importance of leashing their pets. I was lucky enough to get up off the pavement alive and with all limbs attached (suffering just a shattered scapula); my hopes are that if/when it happens again, the next individual is just as lucky. Eric Ryberg provided expertise to my case leading with kindness and professionalism; all of which contributed to comfort during my recovery. Eric was sympathetic to my situation and took the time to answer my questions in plain English (minimizing Attorney speak). A top notch Attorney in my book.

Great Learning Experience
We first met Eric after being hit by a drunk driver, my first impression was Eric was a well spoken, professional demeanor and very personable. We had to file a claim against our own insurance company for uninsured motorist. They threw every road block in front of me possible to not pay our claim. We ended up in court 3 years later and Eric was well prepared, did a great job covering the facts of the case and his closing argument was very impressive. We ended up winning the full value of our case which aloud my family to recover all the medical bills we had occurred and the other aspects of the case. I would recommend Eric and his law firm to anyone who has to go up against a Insurance Company.
