He did a very good job for us

He handled a case in New Mexico for us when we found that we didnt have insurance coverage. He charged us a very fair rate and got great results. The jury awarded them less than half of what we had offered to settle so we were very pleased. While gettign sued was not fun, he helped us throughout t...he entire ordeal and made us feel alot less scared.

Eric helped save my business

Eric handled a cattle case for me that had me very concerned. I was being sued fro several million dollars after a fatality. Throughout the case he kept me well informed and was right on the legal issues. I am extremely pleased with his professionalism, intelligence and bulldog attitude. I hoep ...I never get sued again but if I do Eric will be my first call.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
