I was rear ended in a car accident and I reached out to Eric to be my attorney. I am happy I made the decision. Eric and his assistant Hillary were very responsive, supportive, informative when I had any concerns. I‘m grateful for his kindness and honesty from the beginning to the end. He absolutely went above and beyond to help me in my situation. This was my first time dealing with a car accident, but I was able to focus on recovering from the injuries thank to Eric's professional services. I would highly recommend him.
I had a slip n fall case in Seattle. Eric and his staff always made me feel like I mattered, not just a case. They had everything prepared for court if mediation failed. I would absolutely recommend them!
Eric and his staff are amazing. Everyone is very knowledgeable and helpful. Eric has great communication with his clients and you never feel out of the loop or alone. Very thankful to have him and his staff on my side. They go above and beyond to make sure you understand everything and are alway available to answer any questions.
