Great communication and attention to my case

Mr. von Hacke was a life saver in helping me navigate through the court system. He explained everything throughout the entire process. He genuinely cares about his clients. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

A Capable, Congenial Attorney

My husband and I were referred to Eric after a traffic accident involving serious charges that could have jeopardized my husband’s immigration status. We understood that Eric’s work was in criminal defense, but that he also had experience with immigration law. When we first met, he had already examin...ed the case, and he listened to further details before giving us a knowledgeable and clear assessment of his concerns and his hopes for a favorable outcome. On the court date he was there with us, was comfortable and efficient with procedures that would have overwhelmed us, and was able to negotiate a plea bargain reducing charges that otherwise would have been more costly and more likely to jeopardize our immigration case. His attention to detail, including coordination with our immigration attorney, has been impressive. We were entirely satisfied with his work on our behalf, which is ongoing, and we recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation to anyone seeking counsel in such matters.

Name Change With No Problems

Eric handled the name change for my child that had some quirks. He went above and beyond to keep me informed and handle any problems that arose to prevent me from being inconvenienced. He was willing to work with me with payment arrangements and understood that a made a choice to pick him for leg...al representation and acted accordingly.

Mr. von Hacke was a wonderful asset to have when I needed it the most. He was professional and most importantly he kept me up to date on every detail of the process. I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal services in the future.

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.
