Eric Suris is an attorney at WGK Personal Injury Lawyers in Baltimore, Maryland, where he focuses his practice on personal injury litigation. At the firm, he represents people injured in automobile, trucking and motorcycle collisions, as well as clients harmed by slip-and-fall incidents, dog bites and other premises liability events. He is committed to guiding clients through complex claims and litigation, working to secure fair compensation and accountability for those coping with serious physical, emotional and financial consequences.
During his legal training, Mr. Suris earned a Juris Doctor from The University of Baltimore School of Law after completing undergraduate studies at Plattsburgh State University. He gained practical prosecutorial experience as an intern in the General Felony Unit of the Baltimore City State’s Attorney’s Office, and he broadened his perspective on medico-legal issues by guest lecturing on a course at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Those roles reinforced his interest in trial advocacy and interdisciplinary problem solving.
Licensed to practice in Maryland at both the state and federal levels, Mr. Suris maintains an active professional presence through bar association involvement. He is a member of the Maryland State Bar Association’s Young Lawyers Section, where he participates in continuing education and mentoring initiatives. His approach to casework emphasizes careful investigation, clear client communication and focused negotiation, while remaining prepared to advance claims vigorously in court when necessary.
Recognized by peers for his courtroom commitment, Mr. Suris was named to the National Trial Lawyers’ Top 40 Under 40 list for civil plaintiff attorneys. That accolade reflects a combination of trial results, client advocacy and professional contributions rather than a single credential. He continues to concentrate his practice on helping injured people restore stability and pursue recovery after life-altering accidents.

Representative Clients
- "Mr. Suris went above and beyond in getting me justice in my fall accident. He was very ethical but yet showed true compassion for me. I would highly recommend this law firm and Mr. Suris to anyone. I can't say thank you enough to them." - Barbara W., 2024
- "I had the pleasure of working with Eric Suris throughout my personal injury case. Although the outcome wasn’t what we had hoped for, I was impressed with his professionalism, dedication, and support.While the entire team remained professional from the outset, there was a noticeable lapse in communication for a period, which was disappointing. However, once Eric Suris took over, he moved swiftly and effectively to bring the case to a close, allowing me to finally move on after nearly two years since the incident.From the very beginning, Eric was incredibly thorough in preparing my case. He took the time to understand every detail of my situation, gathered evidence, consulted with experts, and made sure I was informed every step of the way. His attention to detail and commitment to leaving no stone unturned gave me confidence, even during the most challenging moments.What truly stood out to me was the respect Eric showed throughout the entire process. He made sure I felt heard, answered all my questions with patience, and consistently made me feel like a valued client.Eric handled the trial with the utmost skill and composure. While the outcome wasn’t in our favor, it was clear that he gave it his all, and I truly appreciated his transparency and honesty in keeping me updated throughout.Based on my experience working with Eric Suris and this firm, I recommend them to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer. Thank you, Eric. Even though the verdict didn’t go in our favor, we followed the right process and stayed truthful, and you helped bring me the long overdue closure I needed" Google Review from Celestina Agyekum, 2025
