Great to work with - would work with again if needed

I was in a bind when I got my DUI. I had just got out of jail and had never been arrested, I had no clue where to go and just needed some guidance and help. A buddy of mine recommended Mr Lim and I gave him a call. Not only was Mr Lim my attorney he also felt more like my pschologist. He helped me th...rough the process and did a ton of stuff to get my charged dropped down to the lowest punashment (there was absolutely no way it was getting dropped completely so he did next best). He was in constant communication with me - he said from the beginning that it was going to take awhile and everytime there was an update he let me know. He answered all my questions about what ifs and possibilities and he kept it real the entire whole time. The first plea bargain was not in my favor but within a couple weeks we where able to get it down to something we both agreed on. All the positive reviews about Mr Lim are accurate and I would hire him again!

Nobody Better

Eric represented me in a number of cases but mainly on a felony evasion charge. I also had multiple possession charges. He is an amazing lawyer and every time I thought the worst case scenario was the most plausible outcome Eric found a way to get the best outcome. I’m over joyed with the outcome of ...my case. He did everything he could to keep me out of prison and in a comfortable situation. He is respected by judges in multiple counties and obviously works really hard. Couldn’t ask for a better lawyer and I’m being serious. He made a very stressful situation a little more bearable knowing I had him on my team. I wouldn’t look any further if you are seeking council. Eric is the best you’ll find.

Great criminal defense attorney.

If it wasn’t for Eric I would have been indicted by a grand jury. Hiring him was the best choice I made. Communication throughout his representation was outstanding. I feel that he literally saved my life. If you want a criminal defense attorney that will have your back and get things done, call Eric... Lim.

Best decision I made!

I got pulled over for a dui on Christmas Day. I expected the worst. I got tons of emails and mail from lawyers around town. After inquiring with several I felt Eric was the most upfront and honest. He was also very reasonably priced with no hidden fees. Everyone else I talked to had high prices and j...ust told me they would get it dismissed not even knowing all the facts. Eric told me my worst case scenario but ended up getting me the best possible verdict! Dui was dismissed. I thought I would have probation and lots of additional cost added. That wasn’t the case. It’s hard to believe he was able to do this but he did. He did it quickly and I never stepped foot in a courtroom. Hire him!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Eric substituted in as counsel on a former client of mine. The client was a very challenging person to represent. My relationship with this client had been strained and we reached a point where we both felt it was best he find another lawyer. Eric took over the case and was able to resolve it with a dismissal. I know from my own experience that the client was someone who was very difficult to satisfy and who made requests that were against his own interests. I can say from my own observations of Eric that he is bright, hard working and professional."
