Eric Hensen Anderson

I hired Eric for a license issue. I was very specific in my instructions to be conciliatory and contrite, and to express my understanding that I had mad an error in judgement and that I was willing to work with the board. He provided a bombastic, hyperbolic, and overly hostile toned letter that sho...wed no understanding of my situation, and in which he felt he could take liberties with the truth and just make up stuff. He had put off this until the very last minute so I have no choice but to fix it myself, in spite of me asking him for an update. I had to rewrite the letter (it took me less than an hour) and I informed him that his services were no longer required. He became very hostile, said that he was not going to return my $4000 retainer as he felt that the matter w/ the board was resolved (it took over a year with an experienced and savvy lawyer. who also charged me less). I told him that he was welcome to keep a few hundred bucks for the 15 minutes or so he spent dashing off the letter. He was abusive in tone, told me that the only way I could ever get my money back was to sue him and that I would have a hard time getting a lawyer if I sued him. He was unprofessional, abusive, and unpleasant.

It was a terrible accident when our child fell. We reacted quickly taking her to the hospital. She had cracked skull. We were besides ourselves! The possibility of loosing our 8 month old to an accident was wrenching. As the parent present I took responsibility for, well, not being perfect. She fell.... She was a baby. It is my fault. At the hospital everyone was so caring... until just before checkout when three employees came to me and began to ask me about that "take responsibility" thing. I thought nothing about telling the truth again and we went home. Days later I got a call from DFS. THEY DEMANDED to speak with me stating unequivocally that I could not be in the house until they spoke to me (no court order- just their saying it). I knew enough to get a lawyer and a good one. First we called some dink in Blaine who was happy to take my $1000.00 and essentially do not a damn thing. Finally we contacted Erik. His first words to me when I mentioned the attorney that I'd hired, "Who?" These attorney knew each other but this guy was just a hack. At the meeting I stated what happened exactly as I had before. There was the DFS person and a "dectective". Erik sat there. He let them carry on. Then he would redirect the conversation and remind them that he was present and I was duly represented. Then they introduced some "statement" that they would not say where it came from. Erik stepped right in and restated the legal facts that negated and reason for furthering the proceedings. When he left he told me as much. IF YOU ARE HAVING A PROBLEM WITH DFS overly exerting their supposed authority get representation and get it from an attorney like Erik!

I would highly recommend retaining Mr. Eric Anderson for your legal needs. I hired him when I was placed on an temporary immediate suspension, unfortunately three months later. If I would've known what would happen, I would've retained him immediately. He made the process speed up and the end resu...lt, was I received my license back. Eric always listen to my concerns, returned phone calls emails in timely manner and made sure I understood what was going on. Thank you to Eric for all of your work. Sincerely Cori

We had the most serious incident that can happen in a childcare, a sids death. Eric was precise. He knew our case in and out and the represented us against the state professionally and with great knowledge of the systems inaccuracies. I recommend him to everyone having issues with licensing or the st...ate.

First and foremost I would like to commend Lawyer Eric Hendsen Anderson for his phenomenal work. He was the most helpful, honest and patient litigator I have ever had the pleasure of working with. His attention to the details of my case allowed me to focus on what's important to me. My license was in... jeopardy due to a complaint. He used his expertise to deal with the board, wrote letters and assured me the outcome ahead of time. I strongly recommend any individual whom is working in a field, that requires a license and has any legal issues to pursue working with Eric Hendsen Anderson.
