Dedicated and Determined

If you are looking for hard working “bulldog”I HIGHLY recommend Eric Harron. My son had several charges of which another attorney could not negotiate and recommended him to take a conviction for. We fired that attorney and hired Mr. Harron. He got the job done in Williamson and in Travis county!! H...e communicates with prosecutors, he knows the law and stays up to date on the law. He is super smart, yet super tough!

excellent

Eric was a Godsend when my daughter was facing a slew of legal problems. She was fortunate enough to have had a referral from a coworker who was completely satisfied with services he received. Having been placed on DWI probation on two prior cases in two different counties, she was arrested again f...or a third DWI, which was now a felony, and which could carry prison time. State's recommendations on revocations not too good, but Eric fought zealously on her behalf and was able to get a great deal on both, and have the felony DWI reduced to a misdemeanor. I truly believe his success in obtaining these results was nothing more than a reflection of the immense amount of experience and knowledge he possess in criminal law acquired during his career as a defense attorney. As a mother, I have much admiration for him since not living in Austin I had no one to place my faith in, but in him, to do the best he could for my daughter. I have nothing but the upmost respect for him and truly appreciate his professionalism and genuine concern in handling these matters. He and his staff were very attentive. Never once were my calls gone unanswered or my questions unanswered. We were always kept abreast of the direction the cases were going immediately after anything of important transpired. I hope my daughter never needs his legal services again, but should she, he will be the first to call.

Case Dismissed!

I'm here to tell you right now, stop looking for an attorney. Mr. Eric Harron is the only attorney you will ever need. Mr. Harron was the easiest attorney I have ever worked with. He keeps you informed of your case in a timely manner. Not once did I have to call his office for updates. The informatio...n came to me and I was never in the dark. He didn't steer me wrong or give me false hope in my case. Payment was not an issue, he was very understanding clients need payment plans to pay off their balance. Incredibly easy to deal with on all levels, easy to talk to, easy to reach, always available. The man is a true professional and comes highly recommended. I felt as if he was actually fighting for me, not just taking payments like other attorneys. He truly cared about my case and worked diligently to get me the best deal possible. I can honestly say the end result (a dismissal) was better than the best case scenario. Again, Eric is the best. Use him now, you will not be disappointed.

Great, Very Experience and Knowledgeable Defense Attorney.

Eric is true and very knowledgeable Attorney. Will give you the facts straight up what you are facing and sit down work a plan out. Will look at all the evidence,in the case to clear your side. He supported me and kept from having by DL suspended. He kept me well-informed throughout the process both... civil/criminal and fully treated me with respect. Was facing charges in Williamson county and was glad find him in Austin, TX after talking to several attorneys I decided to hire him, felt he was going be the best. Would recommend him if seeking a very experience Defense lawyer.

Great criminal lawyer

Mr. Harron got me the best results possible.... a dismissal! He is a knowledgeable and personable attorney that got the job done. He is comfortable and confident in the court room and his experience showed. My charges were in Williamson county with a notoriously strict judge but this didn't intimidat...e him at all. He was straight forward and upfront with me throughout and got to the facts. He is passionate about what he does and will fight for your rights. I highly recommend Eric Harron to anyone facing legal troubles.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"When you hire a criminal attorney, you need a good negotiator, someone who can assess your case and give you a realistic picture of what the likely outcomes are. You need a lawyer who can convince the prosecutors to do the right thing. But at the end of the day, negotiations may only get you so far. You need a lawyer who can make your case to a jury. Eric is an excellent trial lawyer who gets great results for his clients. He's not afraid to try tough cases that lesser lawyers would shy away from. I highly recommend him."
