Eric gets great satisfaction when his clients get justice. For example, an ill, retired man with a family of his own, got justice from a company he dedicated his life to. A company who simply discarded him and looked the other way when the responsibility for his injury or disease was their own doing. Eric’s family taught him the value of right and wrong, and he learned growing up that people and companies aren’t always fair. To Eric, there is no nobler cause than helping those that have been injured due to no fault of their own.
