Adam Ryan, Criminal defense Attorney
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Having opposed Eric Anderson on several matters, I know he is a tenacious trial attorney who represents his clients aggressively and ethically. His courtroom demeanor is uncompromisingly professional yet uniquely entertaining and effective. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Eric Anderson.
Joseph Ahart, DUI and DWI Attorney
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I locked horns with Mr. Anderson on many occasions over the years that he was a prosecutor. Mr. Anderson is an aggressive, knowledgeable, and experienced trial lawyer who I would recommend.
