I grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada, and during my youth, worked at both Caesars Palace and the Sahara Hotels. While attending Valley High School in Las Vegas, I met Bonnie Braiker-Gordon, who in 1975 became my wife. We attended college together in Los Angeles and then attended law school together in San Diego.
I have always been a fan of all forms of music and for a short time, played guitar in a rock & roll band. I have never retired my guitars, and playing music to this day is about the greatest form of relaxation I have experienced.
Bonnie (my wife and law partner) and I have two grown children. Our son married in 2008, and our daughter married in 2010. We now have three beautiful grandchildren and one more on the way.
I have many hobbies and interests, however, this is neither the time nor place for a discussion of my own pursuits.
What is far more important to learn about me are the assurances I give to each of my clients to use my very best efforts to obtain a fair, just and reasonable outcome in every legal matter handled by our law firm. Further, that I take a "personal" interest in all legal matters for which I am retained to represent your interests, and vow to keep you fully informed of all material aspects of your case - whatever that may entail...
Whatever choices you make in selecting an Attorney to represent you, please do not be embarrassed or ashamed to ask important and pertinent questions - and that would most certainly include hourly rates, costs and opinions as to the success or failure at the time of trial.
Eric S. Gordon, Esq.

Eric Gordon Rocks
Eric had a very "neutralizing" effect on a stressful situation. His expertise in the field of family law and his calm demeanor most likely kept me from being the lead story on the Eleven O'Clock News. His tenacity and extreme advocacy for his clients makes him a diamond in the rough. I highly reco...

Smarts and Integrity
Over the past 15-plus years, I've sought advice from Mr. Gordon on a couple of matters, and he represented me on a consumer case in which I had tried in vain to resolve matters myself. That case was resolved quickly and satisfactorily, and his advice in the other matters was extremely helpful. He i...

Excellent LA Attorney
Eric handled my rather nasty divorce in 2006/2007. My ex proved to be unresponsive and evasive, taking every opportunity to make the process as difficult, lenghty and painful as possible. Eric handled all of the necessary correspondence between us. This allowed me to maintain some semblance of sanity...
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Eric Gordon in a professional capacity for at least 25 years. In that time he has proven to be a stalwart colleague, always willing to extend his knowledge to others. To my knowledge, he is well-versed in several areas of law. A true gentleman."
"I have been referring clients to Eric for over twenty years. His service is excellent; his fees are compassionate; our clients are satisfied. If I needed a divorce lawyer (knock on wood), I'd call Eric."
"With his impeccable style and strong work ethic, Eric Gordon is the best of the best for any legal problem. Like a pit bull, he will fight for your rights and guide you toward making the appropriate resolution of your case."
