A+ Attorney

I used Eric about 1.5yrs ago to handle my divorce. When i first communicated with Eric i was out of state, nervous about the divorce proceedings, nervous about my finances and the impact my divorce would have on our kids, nervous about our possessions, and nervous about being one of those really ugl...y divorce stories. I had no previous experience working with divorce lawyers but after speaking/interviewing with several other attorney's I made the decision to work with Eric. It was one of the best decisions I have made. I can honestly say that all those nerves i had going into this were real but Eric did a real good job of explaining things to me, was standing right beside me on the final day when i went up in front of the judge, was responsive, and very knowledgeable. Aside from the positive and professional customer service, I couldn't be more happy about the terms of the divorce. I literally got everything I wanted... I kept the house i worked so hard to buy at a young age, the minimal amount of child support required, the custody arrangements of my preference, and a very fair split of the remaining assets. I do think it is worth noting that my ex's attorney was well known so this was no walk in the park for Eric. Eric and I were in mediation from about 8am 6:30pm, and he would have been there with me if it was from 8am - 6:30am the next day. As you can tell i was very pleased with his services and have him helping me on a case right now against the attorney generals office and the records they have on file regarding my child support payments. This time around I have none of the nerves I had before working with Eric.

Best Divorce Attorney In Austin By Far

I was very pleased with my decision to hire Eric Willie to handle my divorce. It started out as a simple proceeding but became complex quickly. Eric had the experience to know just what to do and kept me calm throughout. After having already gone through one attorney, Eric made me realize quickly tha...t he was the right person for the job. He actually returns calls which is rare with attorneys. He also kept me posted about the status of my case throughout. I was also pleased with the way that he billed. He doesn't try to hide the ball and I actually got money back at the end of the case.

Great Attorney

Eric is a great attorney. He always understood what my priorities were and what was important to me, especially when it came to custody of my 2 children. The 2 other attorneys I had talked to recommended I settled for standard visitation because they probably did not want to deal with my case and jus...t make fast cash. Eric never compromised on the joint custody I wanted, and hiring him was my best decision. He is result oriented and has always taken the time to clearly explain my options to me and is very honest in setting expectations. I would recommend Eric to anyone looking for an attorney.

FANTASTIC ATTORNEY/KNOWS HIS STUFF

Mr. Willie handled my case in the utmost Professional manner. He and his firm kept me up to date on all occurrences during the time of my legal needs. His attorney/client disclosure was wonderfully handled during this process and he took care of all my legal matters expediantly and with integrity. Hi...s fees were more than acceptable and I was given plenty of time to come up with the money owed without any harrassment. I have and will continue to recommend Mr. Willie and his firm to any of my friends and/or family that are in need of legal advice or assistance!
