Aroutun Safarian, Personal injury Attorney on Aug 1, 2014
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Eric is a class act. Eric and I were opposing lawyers on a case. Eric proved capable in identifying the relevant issues, advocating effectively for his client, and moving his client's interests ahead in a professional and capable manner. He is an excellent communicator, and very personable. Because of these qualities, we were able to speak candidly and civilly about the relevant issues and reach an early resolution of an otherwise tough litigation matter. He achieved a positive outcome for his clients without the client having to endure the pains of trial and deposition. In doing so, he increased his client's net recovery, keeping costs to a minimum. Few lawyers could have accomplished what Eric managed to do in such a brief period of time. I recommend him without reservation.
