Amazing work

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.

Lona Boyd

I highly recommend Erick Platten!! I hired Erick Platten for a relative who was facing a year in jail. He was always easy to communicate with and available to answer questions. Never once did he not respond to any phone call or text. He worked diligently to identify problems in the case and instead... of a sentence of one year in jail, was able to get the time to be served reduced to 15 days. He was then able to get that sentence divided into two separate occasions so that the time could be served during the week she was off work. Thanks to Erick there was no loss of job! I cannot emphasize enough what a blessing he has been!

Awesome attorney!

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!!

PR bonds after bond violation

He was able to get me out in smith county on 2 PR bonds after I had previously violated the conditions of my bond. He had to go up and fight for it twice. If you want an attorney that cares the hire him. He is always very quick to respond to our phone calls and texts and very transparent in his respo...nses.
