Erick Platten has gone above and beyond. He got me exactly what I was wanting from the court. He got the time down for my probation to 3 years instead of 5. What amazes me the most is that since my case had ended I have had some problems or situations I needed his help with and he was ALWAYS just a p...hone call away. Most lawyers would just take your money and go after the case was over, but Erick no. He even checks in with me to see how I’m doing with everything. He is very personable and caring. Thank you very much for your work. I’m now realizing how hard it would have been if I just took my felony like I wanted from the beginning. Thank you for talking me out of it.

We hired Erick to defend my husband on an aggravated assault on a public servant charge. We were clueless on what to do and where to start! Erick held our hand every step of the way and always assured us with honesty on what to expect next. He was always very quick with responding to our questions an...d he was always available, even on weekends and holidays! In the end he got my husband’s case completely dismissed! It was a huge relief!! We highly recommend him!!

After meeting with Erick Platten I knew he was my guy to help with some legal matters. Erick advised me on the best option. He was curtious and upfront. He treated me like I was his only client and he was working for me. Erick was able to get the payments I owed cut in half and down to a payment I co...uld afford. Not to mention his legal assistant. She is fabulous. I highly recommend hiring Erick Platten for all your legal needs. If you want the best representation Run don’t walk.

I hired Mr. Platten after I was arrested while on deferred adjudicated probation. I was terrified of the possible outcomes! Mr. Platten made me feel confident that he would do what needed to be done to assure my place with my family and not in a Texas jail. After I was arrested Mr. Platten worked ...diligently with the Van Zandt and Smith county courts to make my 50,000 dollar bond change to a PR bond to assure my quick release when it seemed impossible to be released at all. I was overwhelmed and truly astonished by how fast Mr. Platten was able to get in touch with the judge and DA to have the appropriate papers signed for my PR bond release! Within a few weeks following my arrest he again did the impossible. My probation was reinstated with out modifications for further punishment even though I had violated felony deferred adjudicated probation! Mr. Platten is a brilliant attorney! I honestly could not have survived the terrifying court process without him. I would recommend him for absolutely any case or person. Mr. Platten is a true genius in the courts. My case could have turned out so much worse and Mr. Platten managed to grant the best possible outcome anyone could have ever imagined! A true life saver!
