This review is from a person who hired this attorney.
Never Available. Never returned calls. Everything "deferred" to Erica, his helper.
This guy (even after being given a large retainer) will never call you back, he's never available and after 5 months of >NOTHING< I asked for my retainer returned to me (over the voice mail because he and her are NEVER available) and I FINALLY got it back after leaving many messages. I think this guy...

Eric Everett Hawes's Lawyer Endorsements
"Eric is the consummate professional. He has deep experience in business and real estate transactions and litigation and will go the extra mile to get the results his clients need. I recommend him wholeheartedly."
"I endorse this lawyer. Eric has substantial expertise in both legal transactional matters and litigation. This expertise gives his clients an advantage as Eric knows how to prevent a transaction from turning into litigation and if a lawsuit is filed, he knows how to dissect and examine the documents."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I've known Eric and his partner for about 10 years. Eric has extensive experience both in negotiating business deals and in litigating business deals gone wrong. How much do I trust and respect Eric's abilities? This much: Eric is on my short list of colleagues to whom I turn when I need to confer on issues that challenge me in my own practice. Eric's insights are always invaluable and spot-on. It is an honor to recommend Eric to those in need of the very best in legal representation."
"I endorse this Eric of Perez & Hawes. His emphasis is in the representation of businesses, banks, contractors, secured creditors and real estate owners in transactional, litigation and insolvency matters."
"I have known Eric Hawes for many years. Eric specializes in real estate transactions and litigation. Not many lawyers represent clients in both litigation and transactions, but Eric does both extremely well. And, because Eric does both, he's better at each, as litigation provides insights that make him a better transnational attorney, and vice versa. Eric is a conscientious, experienced, client-focused lawyer who I am proud to recommend."
"I have known Eric Hawes for almost ten years and he has established himself as a leader in his field. What separates Eric from other real estate lawyers is that he handles both transactions and litigation. As such, he is acutely aware of the nuances that other lawyers miss because he knows what can cause a dispute and how to avoid a dispute. In fact, he is better at both transactions and litigation for doing both. I give him my highest recommendation and if any of my valued clients require advice on real estate matters, Eric is my first call."
