Eric was a blessing to work with. As this was my first major accident, I had no idea what to expect. He and his team kept me up to date throughout the process. Although it was a lengthy process, to no fault of Eric, he was able to achieve a favorable outcome for me. I hope I will never have a nee...d for an attorney again, but if I do, Eric will be my first call.

Like most people, I am looking for a particular set of attributes when searching for a attorney to trust with my case. Eric Trout checks all those boxes. He is professional, prepared, knowledgeable, and uses due diligence. He combines those traits of competence with a patient, empathetic, &... attentive disposition that makes him easy to trust & a pleasure to work with. Maybe most importantly, I want my lawyer to carry some professional pride. I want a genuine desire to win a case that is separate & apart from the desire to collect a fee. I was not disappointed!! I strongly recommend Eric to anyone who values these characteristics the way I do. That being said, I'm very happy with the outcome of my case! Executed like a true professional business man. Also, my settlement was much larger then I even expected. I can't thank you enough!

I sought Eric's council after a bad car accident in which the driver's insurance company refused to pay for my hospital bills. Eric was ethical, fair, and straightforward throughout the entire process. He gave me the choice of settling the case through arbitration with a mediator rather than a in a c...ourtroom with a jury. This relieved a lot of stress. He was experienced and well prepared.

My case was complex in nature due to my decisions to follow an alternative path way of medical care. I am thankful that Eric presented my case in a manner that was true to the circumstances and events that occurred while allowing me to maintain a sense of integrity with the choices and decisions tha...t I made. I very much appreciated the level of confidence (without arrogance), professionalism, and pragmatism that Eric displayed in all of our interactions and that I witnessed in his interactions with the opposing counsel. His strategic thinking and ability to clearly communicate was quite impressive during the trial. I was reluctant to pursue litigation and was dreading the entire process; however Eric and his firm made it extremely bearable and therefore limited the amount of stress that I experienced. Additionally, he considered my needs and convenience with living out-of-state during this process. I am very pleased with the outcome of the trial and feel validated in my decision to follow through with this case. I could not have asked for a better outcome. I thank Eric so much for his expertise, skill, strategic thinking, and respect. I would highly recommend Eric Traut and the Traut Firm to anyone seeking legal representation for a personal injury case. It was a pleasure working with him during this process and I am truly thankful that he accepted my case!
