Clear, Honest, and Knowledgeable Defense Attorney

I chose Mr. Harron to represent me in my criminal defense case in Williamson County. I am extremely happy with this decision. He kept me informed, demonstrated his knowledge of the law, and succeeded in having the charges brought against me dismissed in a court notoriously difficult for defense att...orneys. I had been charged with a Class B Misdemeanor for possession of marijuana. However, when I was arrested my rights had been violated when my vehicle was searched without my consent and without probable cause. Mr. Harron inspected the State's evidence against me in order to construct a strong case. I believe his success stems from his ability to communicate clearly and effectively. He demonstrates a compassion for citizens' rights as well as superb attention to detail. These things show that he has the stamina and courage to stand up for your rights. He kept me well-informed throughout the process and he treated me with respect and honesty. I never felt like I was alone in this case nor did I feel as though I was being filled with false promises. Honestly, I felt confident in my case from the moment we first spoke on the phone. What's more is that in the courtroom, I felt like I had the best defense lawyer in attendance. Eric never presented to me anything but the honest truth and what he could do to help me get the best result possible. Hiring a lawyer can be an arduous, even strenuous, process, but it doesn't have to be if you find an attorney you can be confident in. I am overjoyed with the result and everything he did for me and for working out a payment plan with me. He went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend his services and would eagerly hire him again.

Excellent - Auto accident lawyer

I am very grateful for all the assistance/help from Mr. Harron. As a lawyer, he is very professional and personal. I felt very comfortable with Mr. Harron and he and I communicated very well to understand my expectations. He explained the process/procedure to me where I could understand it. I app...reciated his advice when I needed it. I would recommend Mr. Harron to family and friends if asked.

Eric Harron Criminal Defense Experience

Eric helped me with a criminal case this past year. It was important that the case was resolved quickly so that I could accept a job offer. Eric was able to get my a great deal on my case that would not hinder my future career prospects. He also went out of his way to help me with other legal mat...ters without charging anything extra, such as working to get me an occupational license to drive to work and college. He was very informative and willing to help with any questions or concerns I had at any time. He will also help put you in contact with others and will be honest if he knows of someone who can serve you better for your specific needs. I highly recommend that you hire Eric.

Eric Harron=Excellent

I recently ran into some legal trouble and Eric Harron was my court appointed lawyer. Anytime i would call his office i would get immediate assistance and was sent to his direct phone line; even when he wasn't in office I would leave a voice mail and he would respond almost immediately. I went to cou...rt a few times and finally got a deal that i was happy with. I would highly recommend Eric Harron as an attorney and will call him if future legal problems arise.

Straight to the Point

Eric Harron is very good at what he does. He was able to get me a great deal in my case which dropped my DWI charge to a lesser offense with the opportunity for probation to wipe the charge clean. The thing I liked best about Eric was that he did not sugar coat anything. He told me exactly what ...I was facing and what the possible outcomes were. I definitely recommend Eric for whatever your case may be.

"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."

"I've dealt with Eric as both opposing counsel and co-counsel. During the time that I've known him, he has won numerous jury trials and motions to suppress evidence. His courtroom victories are a direct result of his intelligence, hard work, and tenacity. He takes pride in his work as a trial lawyer and does an excellent job representing the citizens of central Texas."
