Eric Dirks
I have known Eric for over a decade. He is an excellent lawyer and and even better person, and his law firm is top notch. I recommend him to anyone.

Eric Dirks helped me secure a settlement in a personal injury case. He was prompt to get back to me, answered all of my questions and worked well with the other party. The result was a settlement significantly larger, and in less time, than I expected. I recommend Eric Dirks without exception!v
"Eric is hands down one of the best lawyers in Kansas City. He is intelligent and also able to explain complex concepts in a way a jury can understand. He works hard for every client and cares about every case. He is an all star."
"I have worked with Eric on several class actions and have found that his "outside-the-box" thinking on class action matters is second to none. Eric is a brilliant lawyer and is respected by his peers and opposing counsel."
"Eric and I have worked together on consumer protection issues relevant to all Missourians. Through that work, it became clear to me that Eric is a thoughtful and talented attorney who obtains great results for his clients. I have absolute confidence in Eric to handle any complex class action, commercial litigation, or personal injury matter he encounters. Most clients are not so lucky to have this type of advocate on their side."
"Eric is a phenominally talented attorney with significant experience in large, complex matters. He takes care in his work, and is detail-oriented, and provides excellent representation to his clients."
"Eric is simply as good as they come. His strategic skill and his tireless diligence yield extremely favorable outcomes for his clients. I have extensive personal experience working closely with Eric, and would recommend him without hesitation to my best friends or close family."
