Highly Recommend Experienced Attorney

Consulted with Mr. Eckman concerning a legal matter and was seeking a second opinion. Mr. Eckman was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond exceeding my expectations. All of the legal advice during our consultation provided points of reason while outlining my cost/benefit analysis ultimately de...termining which direction to head in my case. If you have an opportunity to work with Mr. Eckman on a legal matter consider yourself blessed.

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 22

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. He is competent and caring. He listens to his clients and actually gives advice which they can understand without too much legalese. Additionally, He knows the DWI system inside and out and knows about jury trials specifically in Bexar County. I know he is someone I turn to to discuss the finer points of law due to his unique background in the state and federal systems. As a native San Antonian, he also knows the people of this area and is willing to help anyone, in any way that he can. He is truly a compassionate and thoughtful attorney and individual."

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I knew Aaron to be a formidable foe as a prosecutor and now know him to have a stellar reputation as a defense attorney. I worked against him on many cases when he was a part of the Bexar County DAs office, and always had a great deal of respect for his advocacy and ethics. I am excited that he is carrying these same attributes to the defense bar. He would be a great hire for anyone looking for a defense attorney."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
