There’s no need for anyone else

Custody troubles are never easy and they can get messy quickly. Eric Maughan was professional, thorough and communicative every step of the way. He remained honest and shot me straight which I appreciated because of the stark contrast to other attorneys I’ve experienced. He is the kind of guy who cou...ld be a pitbull in the courtroom but be the guy you want to have a beer with to celebrate another win. He understands the formalities and simultaneously makes you feel like you’re in the driver’s seat. He understood me and how important my son is to me. He argued for me when I felt like giving up or when things got too confusing. He will do the same for you and your family. I would take Eric Maughan into courtroom “battle” with me 366 days of the year. Don’t make a mistake and hire anybody from any firm. Stop your search and do yourself a favor and protect your family and hire Eric Maughan. Make the right decision. Stop making excuses and let Eric Maughan show you and your family what good looks like.

DaNae Ziegler - Zero Stars

Torrone Law Firm was recommended by our previous law firm since Torrone Law specializes in complex CPS cases and unfortunately due to the time constraints I was not awarded the opportunity to properly vet Eric, Chris and the Torrone Law team. DaNae Ziegler is by far the worst paralegal I have ev...er worked with. She lacks all form of communication skills and tact. Update requests were sent to her via email with zero response, our phone calls were ignored unless I blocked my number. I am not certain what information was even facilitated to Eric. She had a long list of items that she verbally confirmed that she was working on for our case but it turns out that none were ever completed. She even had the audacity to say she never received my emails and phone calls. DaNae's complete lack of transparency, communication and professionalism is why we left the firm. Please, if you see her name come across your email quickly find new representation to save yourself both time and money. Chris and Eric were realistic attorneys and I believe if they had a decent Paralegal team behind them they would have the opportunity to be very successful. Their paralegal team is setting them up for failure by mismanaging their cases and providing a poor experience to their clients.

Open, honest, and takes care of business

Eric has been my lawyer for almost 9 years and has always been available if needed. He has helped me successfully navigate family court and the impending issues many times throughout the last 8 years. During one of the most difficult times of my life he was there to provide me straight and honest a...nswers as well as realistic possibilities. I was able to make the best choices for my family which allowed me to retain custody of my two small children and provide them with the life they need. As a father it was very important that I had honest answers and expectations so that I was not disappointed, He provided the hard work and advice which kept my family together and was always available for consultation throughout my proceedings. At no time did I feel that I was not getting top notch service or representation. Honest, aggressive, and realistic lawyers are hard to find but I'm glad that I did. Would recommend Eric to anyone who needs representation on any scale.

I never thought I would have anything nice to say about an attorney!

WOW! It is such a relief to have someone do what they say they are going to do. I have dealt with several attorneys and have never got one to do what I was expecting them to do until I met Eric Maughan. I have hired him on two occasions to defend my son. The first time my son got in trouble he wa...s 15. The court wanted to try him as an adult. I thank God that Eric was there because he got the best possible results we could have wanted. And now again I called upon him and he again got us the best possible results. I am very thankful for Eric's honesty, and not sugar coating anything, or just telling me what I want to hear. He is always very professional and at the same time easy to talk with. My emergency was his emergency. I can officially say; "you'll be hearing from my attorney" because I actually have one! I will call Eric every time I need legal advise and or representation! If peace of mind is important to you, then hire Eric because that is what you will have while he takes care of your legal issues. Thank you Eric!

Compassionate and professional

Eric was hired by us and from day one was diligent yet compassionate about my daughters case. The process was long and emotional and he stuck through it and answered our questions and concerns in a timely and professional manner but also was understanding about the many ups and downs that one experie...nces in a legal battle. The outcome was better than we expected and we were very happy with the job Eric did.
