Practice areas
I assist my clients with their business and real estate disputes. Whether you have a problem with a supplier, a customer, an associate, or a competitor, I can help. I also help when my clients face difficulties with their neighbors, with buyers, sellers, and real-estate agents, or with co-owners.
Besides litigating real-estate disputes, I can help you buy or sell your house or acquire an easement.
My employment practice mostly includes ensuring compliance with wage and hour laws and defending professional and occupational licenses.
I assist residential and commercial landlords and tenants who want to enter leases, know their rights under them, and end them.
I have written over 50 appeals. I have developed both the extensive knowledge of the law and the clear prose necessary for appellate success.

After reading most or maybe all of Mr. Eschen's responses to employment and labor questions on Avvo, I am glad to endorse him. His responses are remarkable for their accuracy, clarity and analysis. If Mr. Eschen brings the same level of care to his clients (and I am sure he does), then his clients are in very good hands.

I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Escshen is a very knowledgeable attorney who provides excellent responses on Avvo.com.
Anthony Sperber, Litigation Attorney on Nov 11, 2010
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Mr. Eschen and I were on opposite sides of a long-running and very contentious case. As litigation attorneys and judges know well, it is very easy for opposing attorneys to fall into adversarial positions that are antagonistic and unproductive. Mr. Eschen shares my view that this may feel self-righteous, it rarely advances our clients' cause. As a result, Mr. Eschen was always professional, courteous and ethical. He fought hard for his client, but did it the right way.
