Eric Louis Freise

Eric Freise has practiced personal injury law in Washington State since 1976. He has tried cases resulting in successful verdicts in ten Washington counties, plus one county in Oregon. Types of cases tried include accidents involving cars, trucks, business premises, construction sites, toxic materials, products, and medical and legal malpractice. He has represented clients in many other Washington counties in these and other types of cases. The severity of cases range from wrongful death and serious injuries to neck and back strains.

He is a very experienced personal injury lawyer who practices as a sole practitioner, personally communicating with clients, working up each case himself. He spent many years also representing defendants in personal injury cases, so he knows what insurance companies need to settle cases in a manner that fully compensates his clients. And, he knows how to present cases to obtain the best chance of resolving them favorably for his clients.
