I wreck my truck from driving too fast on back road. Got arrested for DWI. Erick did fabulous job for me. It end up I agreed to 30day deferred probation for reckless driving. Whixh is great because thats not a conviction. I had to pay $600 including court cost which is cool with me. Never lost my lic...ense or anything. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND HIM......

Okay, so I got into some trouble for the first time. I was something that could potentially affect my career forever. Mr. Platten took care of everything so quickly and efficiently. I did not have to lift a finger. He really cares about helping and fixing the problem! I'm just happy I know who to go ...to for the future!

I hired Erick to handle my DWI case; I will say that the outcome was better than it could have been, and better than I thought it would be. It was a multiple situation so the outcome was very iffy, and could have gone bad quickly. Erick handled my case as expected with a verdict that was a relief to... say the least. The judicial system, at least for Smith County, is very busy and very abrupt with their sentencing timelines. My only advice is that you must be your own advocate and be diligent in the your own process, regardless of your representing attorney. The system is an ugly system, you must have good representation that can fight if things get ugly......I know Erick was there 100% to handle that.

Our son, a new driver, was issued a speeding ticket and hefty fine. Erick worked incredibly fast to resolve this citation and was able to work with the court to reach a positive outcome for our son. Mr. Platten and his office staff took such great care of our son. If you want an attorney with integri...ty that will help you or your loved ones get the best outcome possible, don't hesitate another second...give his office a call.
