A Classy Attorney

Eric Hintz cares about his clients and puts their needs first. I was recently referred to Eric from a previous client, and let me tell you, I'm glad I was. Eric answered his text every time. He gave professional advice regarding my options and every possible resolution. The truth is I didn't have... to do much. He took care of the court hearings and the paperwork. He continues to remain in touch and I highly recommend using Eric for your DUI case.

Posted by James | November 24, 2015 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Compassionate Expert

The Law Office of Eric Hintz was highly recommended when I was arrested for DUI and Hit-and-Run in January 2012. Mr. Hintz did not take away the stigma of being locked in a cell, but he compassionately and expertly handled my case, which included his recent appearance in court on my behalf at the end... of my three-year probationary period. His performance and that of his staff has allowed me to move forward in my life with dignity. Sincerely, James V.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
