Eric beat my 4th and 5th DUIs

I hired Eric on the recommendation of another attorney for my 4 and 5th DUIs. He beat both at the trials. I was looking at significant jail time for convictions on these offenses. He flat out won and I walked away with my license in tact. I can't say enough about him. He communicated with me at ...all times doing his best to put my mind at ease. Often I'd confuse court dates and I'd text him and he'd get right back to me. I saw 2 people did not like his representation on here. Based on his representation and how he conducted himself with me I don't believe either of them. Definitely hire him.

Great Attorney

Eric at Eric Pittman law has represented me several times. Eric always treatments me with dignity and respect. He is available 24/7. I have exchanged texts with him several times at 2 am. Eric always has kept his word with me. He charges flat fees and in one case in particular he did a lot more ...work than either of us thought would be required and I offered to pay him more money and he declined saying that when he quotes a fee and he makes a mistake he lives with that mistake not me. Here is the other important thing that everyone should know about Eric. Early on in Eric's representation I was nervous about the outcome, until I noticed how he walked into the courtroom. You instantly know that he is in control. I don't know how else to explain it. If you use Eric as a lawyer you will know what I am talking about. I can't stress strongly enough how much I recommend using Eric as your attorney.

warrent issued

Case was going good, cause it was always continued, a trial date was set , but he gave me the wrong trial date, after several texting , he never would give me the correct court date, answering around the question, even tho he appeared and a warrant was issued for me. Found out he had another trial g...oing on my trial date. Threw me under the bus and kept my money.

Worse

Let me sit in jail.never came to see me.made me feel he had everything covered went to trial was not prepared at all had no cross questions prepared did not even file motions to introduce evidence then later seen associating with complaining witness I could have represented myself better. I lost my t...rial than had to hire a real attorney who got the guilty verdict overturned at the trial court level . I have court transcripts that will back up 100% of what I'm saying my name is jens.
