About Eric
Biography
I have a private practice devoted to representing lawyers in ethics and professional responsibility matters. We also handle bar admissions, ethics consultations, expert opinions for disqualification motions, withdrawal motions, and other legal ethics-related issues. We do not represent plaintiffs in legal malpractice actions against lawyers.
