Donald Corky Eby's Reviews

Posted by anonymous | April 6, 2015 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Excellent legal advice and quick response time

I asked Attorney Eby a few questions and received a response very quickly. He answered each question and gave me guidelines as to what my legal options were in the future. His advice was just what I need and I was glad for the quick response.

Outstanding

"I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. Don Eby focused on my issue like it was a million-dollar affair, and resolved it in a short time, keeping me informed every step of the way. He's ethical, knowledgeable, and someone with strong people skills, making dealing with him a relativel...y pleasant experience in a possibly difficult situation. Don's an outstanding problem solver who made the resolution of my case, in my opinion, a win-win solution."

Crazy Tenant Situation

Mr. Eby was very helpful in resolving an issue with our tenant. He was in constant contact with me, keeping me informed of the situation and listing the available options that we could proceed with. I highly recommend Mr. Eby and I will be contacting him again if the need arises.

Outstanding Professionalism and Service

I would highly recommend this attorney. I had issues with a renter/property law. I was in constant contact with Mr. Eby who replied to my e-mails promptly and returned my calls. He lead me through a legal quagmire with skill, determination, and professionalism. I couldn't recommend Mr. Eby highly... enough. This law office is now my home for all legal needs. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

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.
