After being involved in an auto accident where I was rear-ended, the insurance company wanted me to sign off with little compensation for personal injuries. Not knowing what to do I contacted Purchase & George. Eric and his staff were friendly and answered all my questions and concerns. He explained the process in language that I could understand. He is well qualified in dealing with the insurance company. I always knew they were diligently working for me with continuously updates letting me know how the case was progressing. Eric is very knowledgeable and qualified with high ethical standards. His experience and his staff were priceless. I would highly recommend Eric and his staff for anyone needing personal legal support.
I was very fortunate to have Eric Purchase recommended to me. When he took my case, he made sure I was informed every step of the way. Eric and Mark Harrington went above and beyond to return my calls in a prompt manner, treat me with the utmost respect, and worked hard to get the best results for my case. If you need a lawyer, hire the best....Eric Purchase. I did and results prove it!
Needed a lawyer and didn't know how to go about doing it. Got in touch with Mark Harrington at Eric Purchase. Can say nothing but good things of how my wife and I were treated. We were kept in touch about what was happening until the settlement. Thanks so much Mark. Would definitely recommend Eric Purchase to anyone I knew looking for a lawyer.
Eric Purchase was the perfect lawyer for our needs. He has a genuine interest in helping you receive a fair and favorable outcome to your case. He is conservative and not pushy, which my wife and I really appreciated, but could be stern when needed dealing with insurance companies. We trusted Eric completely to do what was right, not just for our benefit, but as a moral person and he never let us down. His communications with us were always very good. He always explained what was going on with the case in layman's terms so we could understand. Also his staff is top notch too, very professional and friendly. The office is always easy to get in touch with and they will return your calls or emails promptly. All in all a wonderful experience.
They are very professional and friendly. They remain on task. They kept to time frames. Every time they told me something would happen, it did. They got me an excellent settlement. It turned out a million times better than I thought it could.
Eric has represented me on a personal matter as well as a business related matter. Each time, I was given first class attention to each and every question I had. Eric takes a hands on approach to his clients and will fight to insure your legal rights are protected. Additionally, his ability to understand the perspectives of all parties involved, gives him an opportunity to understand how to position your case to best suit the situation. His legal knowledge is second to none. I would strongly recommend Eric for any legal issues you may encounter.
Eric provided me with very practical advise and a contract that secured a significant amount of sales for my business. He was very knowledgable on the subject matter and his research and effort was worth every dollar.
Eric is not only a very qualified attorney, he is also very understanding. He makes you feel like you are his only client. Having Eric as my attorney made me just know that my case was going to get resloved in the best manner that it could have.
Eric is a true professional. He consistently exhibits the highest ethical standards and has a brilliant grasp of the law and how it applies. Eric was able to quickly understand our case and tactically maneuver through complicated issues with ease - always thinking two steps ahead. I would highly recommend Eric without hesitation.
I was involved in a car accident where the other driver rear-ended my vehicle. His insurance company did not want to provide adequate compensation for my vehicle and personal injuries. Attorney Purchase came highly recommended to me by people I personally respect and trust. I have had my share of poor lawyers, accountants, and other professionals, so I KNOW what GREAT is, and I now take time to seek the best out. From the start, I realized what an intelligent and caring person Attorney Purchase was. I felt he was really on my side. I wasn't just another case number to crank through the system. He wasn't flamboyant nor condescending. He was there to help me. He took the time to gather all the information and was extremely well organized and prepared. He remembered what I told him. He contacted me frequently, told me what to expect next, and kept me calm throughout the process. He didn't let the insurance companies intimidate me. In the past, I had an experience where my lawyer showed up to represent me and appeared like he hadn't even reviewed my information. I had prepared more information than he did! Not Mr. Purchase. He overcame the insurance company lawyers with his knowledge and facts. His confidence and integrity made me feel relaxed and proud to be associated with him. In the end, he won a much larger settlement for me, which I feel was deserved. I'm not the greedy type, but just wanted to make sure my substantial medical bills would be covered into the future. You can use Mr. Purchase with confidence. He will NOT let you down. He won't take the path of least resistance. He WILL represent you and get the results you deserve. I say this because I have never met a lawyer quite like him.
