Knows how to get a case done

Eric was my second attorney. My first attorney was not doing his job and my case had stalled. In comes Eric Willie. He told me his plan to get the case up and running again. He told me we could go to a judge and have the judge set deadlines. He did just what he said. Despite protests from my husband,... who did not want to get divorced, the judge agreed with Mr. Willie and set the proposed deadlines. Two months later this case that had been going on for nearly two years, was over. My husband was forced to settle. The outcome was great. Even better than what I expected. Thanks to Eric Willie and his staff.

Eric knows the The Travis County court system inside and out

I was thoroughly impressed with Eric's knowledge of what actually happens inside a court room in Travis County. He knew which judges to go to for certain things and which judges not to go to. When you need a lawyer who actually has tried a bunch of cases before the court, Eric is the guy to hire. He ...is an excellent trial attorney and I would recommend him to anyone.

I owe you the world.

I hired Eric after my wife left with our three children. She told me I would never get custody and would be lucky to see them on the weeknd. My kids are my life and I was scared to death. Eric told me that my wife was alienating the children and we would be successful in court. I put all my trust in ...him. On the day of court I was nervous but Eric assured me we would be ok. He did a fantastic job in court and I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer or more trustworthy person. The judge ruled for us and I was so happy to have my life back. I owe the world to Mr. Willie.

He Put My Trust Back In Lawyers

I was referred to Eric by two different friends who had used him during their divorce. My husband had threatened me over and over that if I left him he would take everything away from me including my kids. From the moment I met Eric, he put me at ease. He wanted to know what I wanted, what scared me... about the process and what I needed from him to feel at ease. He told me my husband was being a bully and was trying to control me. Eric gave me a voice and stood up for me. In the end my husband was just hot air. His threats did not work once we fought back. Eric was brilliant in the courtroom. He really knew what he was doing. I trusted him and he did everything he said he would do. When you are looking for someone you can confide in, someone that knows the system and how to win, Eric is the person to go to. I can't thank him enough.

Got this Father FULL Custody!

Eric was exactly what I needed to achieve what felt impossible. He is confident, reassuring, and knowledgeable. He knew exactly what we needed to do to get custody of my son. It was a very long and trying battle but the entire time I was kept well informed and assured we were doing everything righ...t. There were no false promises and he told me up front that this would be a difficult battle but, WE DID IT!! Not only did I get custody but we actually got everything and MORE we asked for!! I would whole heartedly recommend Eric to anyone who needs the best attorney to represent them and their family’s interests. An eternally grateful father, Brice
