Good Response

When professionals agree to volunteer for a free service to help the average individual understand the law, their service is really appreciated when they actually answer the questions posed. We understand that this is not always possible because the legal advice can differ based on details that canno...t be provided over a free service. I felt Mr. Ehrlich read my concerns and answered to the best of his ability, clearly addressing the questions posed. Him taking the time proved that he would take even more time if he were my lawyer. Based on his response, I will certainly use his legal services should I need them.

Just the facts, Maam

Mr. Ehrlich is very quick in absorbing the facts of a case. He has a brilliant legal mind, and presents you with the options available. He focuses on the critical parts of the case and let you know when some information that you may think are valid, are legally irrelevant. You have to follow up with... him if you expect updates on the case.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
